20.	Nickel oxide growth on Si (111), c-Al₂O₃ and FTO/glass by pulsed laser deposition V. E. Sandana ; D. J. Rogers ; F. Hosseini Teherani ; P. Bove ; R. McClintock ; M. Razeghi 03/07/2014-- March 7, 2014 ...[Visit Journal] NiO was grown on Si (111), c-Al₂O₃ and FTO/glass substrates by pulsed laser deposition (PLD). X-Ray Diffraction (XRD) and scanning electron microscope (SEM) studies revealed that layers grown on c-Al₂O₃ were fcc NiO with a dense morphology of cubic grains that were strongly (111) oriented along the growth direction. The relatively low ω rocking curve linewidth, of 0.12°suggests that there may have been epitaxial growth on the c-Al₂O₃ substrate. XRD and SEM indicated that films grown on Si (111) were also fcc NiO, with cubic grains, but that the grain orientation was random. This is consistent with the presence of an amorphous SiO₂ layer at the surface of the Si substrate, which precluded epitaxial growth. NiO grown at lower temperature (200°C) on temperature-sensitive FTO/glass substrates showed no evidence of crystallinity in XRD and SEM studies. After flash annealing in air, however, peaks characteristic of randomly oriented fcc NiO appeared in the XRD scans and the surface morphology became more granular in appearance. Such layers appear promising for the development of future dye-sensitised solar cell devices based on NiO grown by PLD. [reprint (PDF)]
20.	Comparison of PLD-Grown p-NiO/n-Ga2O3 Heterojunctions on Bulk Single Crystal β-Ga2O3 and r-plane Sapphire Substrates D. J. Rogers , V. E. Sandana, F. Hosseini Teherani and M. Razeghi Proc. of SPIE Vol. 12895, Quantum Sensing and Nano Electronics and Photonics XX, 128870J (28 January - 1 February 2024 San Francisco)doi: 10.1117/12.3012511 ...[Visit Journal] p-NiO/n-Ga2O3 heterostructures were formed on single crystal (-201) β (monoclinic) Ga2O3 and r-sapphire substrates by Pulsed Laser Deposition. Ring mesa layer stacks were created using a shadow mask during growth. X-Ray diffraction studies were consistent with the formation of (111) oriented fcc NiO on the bulk Ga2O3 and randomly oriented fcc NiO on (102) oriented β-Ga2O3 /r-sapphire. RT optical transmission studies revealed bandgap energy values of ~3.65 eV and ~5.28 eV for the NiO and Ga2O3 on r-sapphire. p-n junction devices were formed by depositing gold contacts on the layer stacks using shadow masks in a thermal evaporator. Both heterojunctions showed rectifying I/V characteristics. On bulk Ga2O, the junction showed a current density over 16mA/cm2 at +20V forward bias and a reverse bias leakage current over 3 orders of magnitude lower at -20V (1 pA). On Ga2O3/r-sapphire the forward bias current density at +15V was about an order of magnitude lower than for the p-NiO/bulk n-Ga2O3 heterojunction while the reverse bias leakage current at -15V (~ 20 pA) was an order of magnitude higher. Hence the NiO/bulk Ga2O3 junction was more rectifying. Upon illumination with a Xenon lamp a distinct increase in current was observed for the IV curves in both devices (four orders of magnitude for -15V reverse bias in the case of the p-NiO/bulk n-Ga2O3 heterojunction). The p-NiO/n-Ga2O3/rsapphire junction gave a spectral responsivity with a FWHM value of 80nm and two distinct response peaks (with maxima at 230 and 270nm) which were attributed to carriers being photogenerated in the Ga2O3 underlayer. For both devices time response studies showed a 10%/90% rise and fall of the photo generated current upon shutter open and closing which was relatively abrupt (millisecond range), and there was no evidence of significant persistent photoconductivity.

20.	Optical Coatings by ion-beam sputtering deposition for long-wave infrared quantum cascade lasers J. Nguyen, J.S. Yu, A. Evans, S. Slivken and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters, 89 (11)-- September 11, 2006 ...[Visit Journal] The authors report on the development of high-reflection and multilayer antireflection coatings using ion-beam sputtering deposition for long-wave infrared (λ~9.4 μm) quantum cascade lasers. A metallic high-reflection coating structure using Y₂O₃ and Au is demonstrated to achieve a high reflectance of 96.70%, and the use of a multilayer anti-reflection coating structure using PbTe and ZnO is demonstrated to achieve a very low reflectance of 1.64%.

20.	Type-II InAs/GaSb Superlattices and Detectors with Cutoff Wavelength Greater Than 18 μm M. Razeghi, Y. Wei, A. Gin, G.J. Brown and D. Johnstone Proceedings of the SPIE, San Jose, CA, Vol. 4650, 111 (2002)-- January 25, 2002 ...[Visit Journal] The authors report the most recent advances in Type-II InAs/GaSb superlattice materials and photovoltaic detectors. Lattice mismatch between the substrate and the superlattice has been routinely achieved below 0.1%, and less than 0.0043% as the record. The FWHM of the zeroth order peak from x-ray diffraction has been decreased below 50 arcsec and a record of less than 44arcsec has been achieved. High performance detectors with 50% cutoff beyond 18 micrometers up to 26 micrometers have been successfully demonstrated. The detectors with a 50% cut-off wavelength of 18.8 micrometers showed a peak current responsivity of 4 A/W at 80K, and a peak detectivity of 4.5¹⁰ cm·Hz^½·W^-1 was achieved at 80K at a reverse bias of 110 mV under 300 K 2(pi) FOV background. Some detectors showed a projected 0% cutoff wavelength up to 28~30 micrometers . The peak responsivity of 3Amp/Watt and detectivity of 4.25¹⁰ cm·Hz^½·W^-1 was achieved under -40mV reverse bias at 34K for these detectors. [reprint (PDF)]
20.	Long Wavelength Type-II Photodiodes Operating at Room Temperature H. Mohseni and M. Razeghi IEEE Photonics Technology Letters 13 (5)-- May 1, 2001 ...[Visit Journal] The operation of uncooled InAs-GaSb superlattice photodiodes with a cutoff wavelength of λc=8 μm and a peak detectivity of 1.2 × 10⁸ cm·Hz^½/W at zero bias is demonstrated. The detectivity is similar to the best uncooled HgCdTe detectors and microbolometers. However, the R0A product is more than two orders of magnitude higher than HgCdTe and the device is more than four orders of magnitude faster than microbolometers. These features combined with their low 1/f noise and high uniformity make these type-II photodiodes an excellent choice for uncooled high-speed IR imaging arrays [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Interface-induced Suppression of the Auger Recombination in Type-II InAs/GaSb Superlattices H. Mohseni, V.I. Litvinov and M. Razeghi Physical Review B 58 (23)-- December 15, 1998 ...[Visit Journal] The temperature dependence of the nonequilibrium carriers lifetime has been deduced from the measurement of the photocurrent response in InAs/GaSb superlattices. Based on the temperature dependence of the responsivity and modeling of the transport parameters we have found that the carrier lifetime weakly depends on temperature in the high-temperature region. This indicates the temperature dependence of the Auger recombination rate with no threshold that differs it from that in the bulk material and can be attributed to the interface-induced suppression of the Auger recombination in thin quantum wells.

19.	Engineering future light emitting diodes and photovoltaics with inexpensive materials: Integrating ZnO and Si into GaN-based devices C. Bayram ; K. T. Shiu ; Y. Zhu ; C. W. Cheng ; D. K. Sadana ; F. H. Teherani ; D. J. Rogers ; V. E. Sandana ; P. Bove ; Y. Zhang ; S. Gautier ; C.-Y. Cho ; E. Cicek ; Z. Vashaei ; R. McClintock ; M. Razeghi Proc. SPIE 8626, Oxide-based Materials and Devices IV, 86260L (March 18, 2013)-- March 18, 2013 ...[Visit Journal] Indium Gallium Nitride (InGaN) based PV have the best fit to the solar spectrum of any alloy system and emerging LED lighting based on InGaN technology and has the potential to reduce energy consumption by nearly one half while enabling significant carbon emission reduction. However, getting the maximum benefit from GaN diode -based PV and LEDs will require wide-scale adoption. A key bottleneck for this is the device cost, which is currently dominated by the substrate (i.e. sapphire) and the epitaxy (i.e. GaN). This work investigates two schemes for reducing such costs. First, we investigated the integration of Zinc Oxide (ZnO) in InGaN-based diodes. (Successful growth of GaN on ZnO template layers (on sapphire) was illustrated. These templates can then be used as sacrificial release layers for chemical lift-off. Such an approach provides an alternative to laser lift-off for the transfer of GaN to substrates with a superior cost-performance profile, plus an added advantage of reclaiming the expensive single-crystal sapphire. It was also illustrated that substitution of low temperature n-type ZnO for n-GaN layers can combat indium leakage from InGaN quantum well active layers in inverted p-n junction structures. The ZnO overlayers can also double as transparent contacts with a nanostructured surface which enhances light in/out coupling. Thus ZnO was confirmed to be an effective GaN substitute which offers added flexibility in device design and can be used in order to simultaneously reduce the epitaxial cost and boost the device performance. Second, we investigated the use of GaN templates on patterned Silicon (100) substrates for reduced substrate cost LED applications. Controlled local metal organic chemical vapor deposition epitaxy of cubic phase GaN with on-axis Si(100) substrates was illustrated. Scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy techniques were used to investigate uniformity and examine the defect structure in the GaN. Our results suggest that groove structures are very promising for controlled local epitaxy of cubic phase GaN. Overall, it is concluded that there are significant opportunities for cost reduction in novel hybrid diodes based on ZnO-InGaN-Si hybridization. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	III-Nitride photon counting avalanche photodiodes R. McClintock, J.L. Pau, K. Minder, C. Bayram and M. Razeghi SPIE Conference, January 20-25, 2008, San Jose, CA Proceedings – Quantum Sensing and Nanophotonic Devices V, Vol. 6900, p. 69000N-1-11.-- February 1, 2008 ...[Visit Journal] In order for solar and visible blind III-Nitride based photodetectors to effectively compete with the detective performance of PMT there is a need to develop photodetectors that take advantage of low noise avalanche gain. Furthermore, in certain applications, it is desirable to obtain UV photon counting performance. In this paper, we review the characteristics of III-nitride visible-blind avalanche photodetectors (APDs), and present the state-of-the-art results on photon counting based on the Geiger mode operation of GaN APDs. The devices are fabricated on transparent AlN templates specifically for back-illumination in order to enhance hole-initiated multiplication. The spectral response and Geiger-mode photon counting performance are analyzed under low photon fluxes, with single photon detection capabilities being demonstrated in smaller devices. Other major technical issues associated with the realization of high-quality visible-blind APDs and Geiger mode APDs are also discussed in detail and solutions to the major problems are described where available. Finally, future prospects for improving upon the performance of these devices are outlined. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Room temperature continuous wave operation of λ ~ 3-3.2 μm quantum cascade lasers N. Bandyopadhyay, Y. Bai, S. Tsao, S. Nida, S. Slivken and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters, Vol. 101, No. 24, p. 241110-1-- December 10, 2012 ...[Visit Journal] We demonstrate quantum cascade lasers emitting at wavelengths of 3–3.2 μm in the InP-based material system. The laser core consists of GaInAs/AlInAs using strain balancing technique. In room temperature pulsed mode operation, threshold current densities of 1.66 kA∕cm² and 1.97 kA∕cm², and characteristic temperatures (T₀) of 108 K and 102 K, are obtained for the devices emitting at 3.2 μm and 3 μm, respectively. Room temperature continuous wave operation is achieved at both wavelengths. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Phase-locked, high power, mid-infrared quantum cascade laser array W. Zhou, S. Slivken, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters 112, 181106-- May 4, 2018 ...[Visit Journal] We demonstrate phase-locked, high power quantum cascade laser arrays, which are combined using a monolithic, tree array multimode interferometer, with emission wavelengths around 4.8 μm. A maximum output power of 15 W was achieved from an eight-element laser array, which has only a slightly higher threshold current density and a similar slope efficiency compared to a Fabry-Perot laser of the same length. Calculated multimode interferometer splitting loss is on the order of 0.27 dB for the in-phase supermode. In-phase supermode operation with nearly ideal behavior is demonstrated over the working current range of the array. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Comparison of Trimethylgallium and Triethylgallium for the Growth of GaN A. Saxler, D. Walker, P. Kung, X. Zhang, M. Razeghi, J. Solomon, W. Mitchel, and H.R. Vydyanath Applied Physics Letters 71 (22)-- December 1, 1997 ...[Visit Journal] GaN films grown by low-pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition using trimethylgallium and triethylgallium as gallium precursors are compared. The films were characterized by x-ray diffraction, Hall effect, photoluminescence, secondary ion mass spectroscopy, and etch pit density measurements. GaN layers grown using triethylgallium exhibited superior electrical and optical properties and a lower carbon impurity concentration. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	AlGaN-based deep-ultraviolet 320 x 256 focal plane array E. Cicek, Z. Vashaei, E.K. Huang, R. McClintock and M. Razeghi OSA Optics Letters, Vol. 37, No. 5, p. 896-898-- March 1, 2012 ...[Visit Journal] We report the synthesis, fabrication, and testing of a 320 × 256 focal plane array (FPA) of back-illuminated, solarblind, p-i-n, Al_xGa_1−xN–based detectors, fully realized within our research laboratory. We implemented a pulse atomic layer deposition technique for the metalorganic chemical vapor deposition growth of thick, high-quality, crack-free, high Al composition Al_xGa_1−xN layers. The FPA is hybridized to a matching ISC 9809 readout integrated circuit and operated in a SE-IR camera system. Solar-blind operation is observed throughout the array with peak detection occurring at wavelengths of 256 nm and lower, and falling off three orders of magnitude by ∼285 nm. By developing an opaque masking technology, the visible response of the ROIC is significantly reduced; thus the need for external filtering to achieve solar- and visible-blind operation is eliminated. This allows the FPA to achieve high external quantum efficiency (EQE); at 254 nm, average pixels showed unbiased peak responsivity of 75 mA∕W, which corresponds to an EQE of ∼37%. Finally, the uniformity of the FPA and imaging properties are investigated. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Geiger-Mode Operation of AlGaN Avalanche Photodiodes at 255 nm Lakshay Gautam, Alexandre Guillaume Jaud, Junhee Lee, Gail J. Brown, Manijeh Razeghi Published in: IEEE Journal of Quantum Electronics ( Volume: 57, Issue: 2, April 2021) ...[Visit Journal] We report the Geiger mode operation of back-illuminated AlGaN avalanche photodiodes. The devices were fabricated on transparent AlN templates specifically for back-illumination to leverage hole-initiated multiplication. The spectral response was analyzed with a peak detection wavelength of 255 nm with an external quantum efficiency of ~14% at zero bias. Low-photon detection capabilities were demonstrated in devices with areas 25 μm×25 μm. Single photon detection efficiencies of ~5% were achieved. [reprint (PDF)]

Razeghi Applied Physics Letters., 68 (1),-- January 1, 1996 ...[Visit Journal] Long-wavelength InAs_1−xSb_x photoconductors operated without cryogenic cooling are reported. The devices are based on p-InAs_1−xSb_x/p-InSb heterostructures grown on (100) semi-insulating GaAs substrates by low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (LP‐MOCVD). Photoreponse up to 14 μm has been obtained in a sample with x=0.77 at 300 K, which is in good agreement with the measured infrared absorption spectra. The corresponding effective lifetime of ≊0.14 ns at 300 K has been derived from stationary photoconductivity. The Johnson noise limited detectivity at λ=10.6 μm is estimated to be about 3.27×10⁷ cm· Hz^½/W at 300 K. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	320x256 Solar-Blind Focal Plane Arrays based on Al_xGa_1-xN R. McClintock, K. Mayes, A. Yasan, D. Shiell, P. Kung, and M. Razeghi Applied Physics Letters, 86 (1)-- January 3, 2005 ...[Visit Journal] We report AlGaN-based back-illuminated solar-blind ultraviolet focal plane arrays operating at a wavelength of 280 nm. The electrical characteristics of the individual pixels are discussed, and the uniformity of the array is presented. The p–i–n photodiode array was hybridized to a 320×256 read-out integrated circuit entirely within our university research lab, and a working 320×256 camera was demonstrated. Several example solar-blind images from the camera are also provided. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Two-dimensional magnetophonon resonance in GaInAs-InP and GaInAs-AlInAs heterojunctions and superlattices J.C. Portal, G. Gregoris a b , M.A. Brummell , R.J. Nicholas, M. Razeghi, M.A. Di Forte-Poisson, K.Y. Cheng, A.Y. Cho J.C. Portal, G. Gregoris, M.A. Brummell, R.J. Nicholas, M. Razeghi, M.A. Di Forte-Poisson, K.Y. Cheng, A.Y. Cho, Two-dimensional magnetophonon resonance in GaInAs-InP and GaInAs-AlInAs heterojunctions and superlattices, Surface Science, Volume 142, Issues 1–3, 1984, Pages 368-374,-- July 1, 1984 ...[Visit Journal] We report the observation of magnetophonon resonance in GaInAs-InP heterojunctions and measurements of the temperature dependence of the oscillations. A single series of oscillations due to scattering by the “GaAs-like” mode of GaInAs is seen, in contrast to GaInAs-InP superlattices, where scattering from InP phonons is also observed, and GaInAs-AlInAs heterojunctions, where coupling to “InAs-like” modes only is seen. This behaviour is discussed in terms of long-range phonon interactions and interface phonons. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	High power frequency comb based on mid-infrared quantum cascade laser at λ ~9μm Q. Y. Lu, M. Razeghi, S. Slivken, N. Bandyopadhyay, Y. Bai, W. J. Zhou, M. Chen, D. Heydari, A. Haddadi, R. McClintock, M. Amanti, and C. Sirtori Appl. Phys. Lett. 106, 051105-- February 2, 2015 ...[Visit Journal] We investigate a frequency comb source based on a mid-infrared quantum cascade laser at λ ∼9 μm with high power output. A broad flat-top gain with near-zero group velocity dispersion has been engineered using a dual-core active region structure. This favors the locking of the dispersed Fabry-Pérot modes into equally spaced frequency lines via four wave mixing. A current range with a narrow intermode beating linewidth of 3 kHz is identified with a fast detector and spectrum analyzer. This range corresponds to a broad spectral coverage of 65 cm⁻¹ and a high power output of 180 mW for ∼176 comb modes. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	EPR STUDY OF Mn 2. AROUND THE FERROELASTIC TRANSITION POINT OF Pb3(PO4)2 M. Razeghi, B. Houlier and M. Yuste M. Razeghi et al. EPR STUDY OF Mn 2. AROUND THE FERROELASTIC TRANSITION POINT OF Pb3(PO4)2, Solid State Communications, Vol. 26, pp. 665-668. -- January 26, 1978 ...[Visit Journal] The spin Hamiltonian parameters of Mn 2÷ have been measured above and below the transition point (180"C) of the lead phosphate. They show that Mn 2+ substitutes a Pbl ion. Between 175 and 180vC the principal axis OX of the fine tensor is parallel to the wave vector of the soft mode which condensates at the transition point. An exaltation of the linewidth is observed. The linewidth remains constant within 50C of Te; in this temperature range, the "static regime" is achieved, and the correlation time of the fluctuations is less than 10 -s sec. [reprint (PDF)]

In this paper, we report the epitaxial growth and physical properties of device quality GaN layers on high quality AlN templates for the first backilluminated GaN p-i-n APD structures on transparent sapphire substrates. Under low bias and linear mode avalanche operation where they exhibited gains near 1500 after undergoing avalanche breakdown. The breakdown electric field in GaN was determined to be 2.73 MV/cm. The hole impact ionization coefficients were shown to be greater than those of electrons. [reprint (PDF)]

Recent progress of quantum cascade laser research from 3 to 12 μm at the Center for Quantum Devices MANIJEH RAZEGHI,* WENJIA ZHOU,STEVEN SLIVKEN,QUAN-YONG LU,DONGHAI WU, AND RYAN MCCLINTOC Applied Optics Vol. 56, No. 31 -- October 10, 2017 ...[Visit Journal] The quantum cascade laser (QCL) is becoming the leading laser source in the mid-infrared (mid-IR) range, which contains two atmospheric transmission windows and many molecular fingerprint absorption features. Since its first demonstration in 1994, the QCL has undergone tremendous development in terms of the output power, wall plug efficiency, wavelength coverage, tunability and beam quality. At the Center for Quantum Devices, we have demonstrated high-power continuous wave operation of QCLs covering a wide wavelength range from 3 to 12 μm, with power output up to 5.1 W at room temperature. Recent research has resulted in power scaling in pulsed mode with up to 203 W output, electrically tunable QCLs based on monolithic sampled grating design, heterogeneous QCLs with a broad spectral gain, broadly tunable on-chip beam-combined QCLs, QCL-based mid-IR frequency combs, and fundamental mode surface emitting quantum cascade ring lasers. The developed QCLs will be the basis for a number of next-generation spectroscopy and sensing systems. [reprint (PDF)]

Razeghi Applied Physics Letters, 83 (23)-- December 8, 2003 ...[Visit Journal] We demonstrate 4.5 mW output power from AlGaN-based single quantum well ultraviolet light-emitting diodes at a very short wavelength of 267 nm in pulsed operation mode. The output power in continuous-wave mode reaches a value of 165 µW at an injected current of 435 mA. The measurements were done on arrays of four devices flip chip bonded to AlN submounts for thermal management. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Comparison of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes with peak emission at 340 nm grown on GaN substrate and sapphire A. Yasan, R. McClintock, K. Mayes, S.R. Darvish, H. Zhang, P. Kung, M. Razeghi, S.K. Lee and J.Y. Han Applied Physics Letters, 81 (12)-- September 16, 2002 ...[Visit Journal] Based on AlInGaN/AlInGaN multiquantum wells, we compare properties of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (LED) with peak emission at 340 nm grown on free-standing hydride vapor phase epitaxially grown GaN substrate and on sapphire. For the LED grown on GaN substrate, a differential resistance as low as 13 Ω and an output power of more than one order of magnitude higher than that of the same structure grown on sapphire are achieved. Due to higher thermal conductivity of GaN, output power of the LEDs saturates at higher injection currents compared to the devices grown on sapphire. [reprint (PDF)]
19.	Cubic Phase GaN on Nano-grooved Si (100) via Maskless Selective Area Epitaxy Bayram, C., Ott, J. A., Shiu, K.-T., Cheng, C.-W., Zhu, Y., Kim, J., Razeghi, M. and Sadana, D. K. Adv. Funct. Mater. 2014-- April 1, 2014 ...[Visit Journal] A method of forming cubic phase (zinc blende) GaN (referred as c-GaN) on a CMOS-compatible on-axis Si (100) substrate is reported. Conventional GaN materials are hexagonal phase (wurtzite) (referred as h-GaN) and possess very high polarization fields (∼MV/cm) along the common growth direction of <0001>. Such large polarization fields lead to undesired shifts (e.g., wavelength and current) in the performance of photonic and vertical transport electronic devices. The cubic phase of GaN materials is polarization-free along the common growth direction of <001>, however, this phase is thermodynamically unstable, requiring low-temperature deposition conditions and unconventional substrates (e.g., GaAs). Here, novel nano-groove patterning and maskless selective area epitaxy processes are employed to integrate thermodynamically stable, stress-free, and low-defectivity c-GaN on CMOS-compatible on-axis Si. These results suggest that epitaxial growth conditions and nano-groove pattern parameters are critical to obtain such high quality c-GaN. InGaN/GaN multi-quantum-well structures grown on c-GaN/Si (100) show strong room temperature luminescence in the visible spectrum, promising visible emitter applications for this technology.

Through a radiometric calibration technique, we demonstrate temperature independent negative luminescence efficiencies of 45 % in the midwavelength (MWIR) sample from 220 K to 320 K without anti-reflective coating and values reaching 35 % in the long wavelength infrared (LWIR) spectrum sample.
