研究目的
Exploring the effect of Ag thin film as a catalyst to grow gallium oxide thin film and nanowires for high power/high temperature devices and UV nano-sensors.
研究成果
Silver as a catalyst material for the growth of Ga2O3 has shown a great potential for high scale production. Oxygen solubility and diffusivity into silver is high and plays a critical role in enhancing the growth mechanism of Ga2O3. Our results could offer a simple, low-cost, and promising technique to grow thin film or nanowires for wide optoelectronics and sensing applications.
研究不足
The cost of Ga2O3 wafers is still prohibitively high and methods for the top-down and bottom-up fabrication of Ga2O3 nanostructures are still immature.
