Conference OE107
Gallium Nitride Materials and Devices XX
This conference has an open call for papers:
Abstract Due: 17 July 2024
Manuscript Due: 8 January 2025
Post-deadline submissions will be considered for poster, or oral if space is available
Topics for presentation and discussion will include but not be limited to:
Epitaxial growth, bulk growth, and growth of nanostructures
-
MOVPE, MBE, HVPE, substrates (patterned and planar, alternative orientations), solution growth methods both very high pressure and not so high pressure, or by any other method, precursors for dopants and constituents, epitaxial lateral overgrowth, alloys, low-dimensional systems; growth, and exploitation of non-polar and semi-polar surfaces; high-resistivity bulk GaN.
-
Defect structures at the structural and electronic energy levels, electronic states associated with group dopants (mainly involuntary kinds); techniques applied to illuminate the local nature of impurities; surface states; surface passivation; interface states; DLTS and its variants, low-frequency noise techniques, microscopy (TEM, electron holography, STM, AFM and its variants), x-ray analysis, novel dopants. Impact of defects and doping on electronic and optical devices.
-
Structural, electrical, and optical characterization of nanostructures, bulk material, optical and electrical devices, both on macroscopic and microscopic scales. For optical characterization, this includes photoluminescence, electroluminescence, cathodoluminescence, optical-emission imaging, non-linear optics, reflection spectroscopy, experimental measurement of energy band parameters and band structure, etc. For electrical characterization it includes Hall effect, carrier transport, magneto-transport, photoconductivity, thermally stimulated currents, etc., and for structural characterization, x-ray, TEM and its variants, local charge mapping, AFM detection of dislocations, stacking faults, etc.
-
Model nanostructures such as self-assembled and ordered quantum dots, quantum wires and related low-dimensional structures, for microstructures micro-rods, and micro-fin-structures, and optoelectronic and electronic devices based on these structures are among the topics envisioned for discussion. Naturally these structures include waveguides, photonic crystals, and micro-cavities for linear and non-linear optics, both as stand alone and as components for photonic integrated devices. Micro-opto-electronic-mechanical systems employing the particular properties of III-nitrides will also be among the topics of discussion.
-
Band structure (including quantum well heterostructures), quantum size effects, strain effects, excitons (free and bond), polaritons, nanocavities, plasmonic effects, surface phenomena, polarization effects, piezoelectric effects, theoretical models.
-
Topics to be covered include development, characterization, and modelling of laser diodes, superluminescent diodes (SLEDs) and vertical cavity surface emitting lasers (VCSEL) for high optical power with applications to even material processing, high speed modulation for applications such as virtual/augmented/mixed reality, VR/AR/MR and big data communication, efficient illumination, low power consumption, and single longitudinal mode operation. Extending the wavelengths toward longer and shorter wavelengths, in particular into UV will be considered.
-
Vertical GaN devices, and HFETs, and dielectric-gated FETs for high-power switching and RF as well as high-frequency applications inclusive of topics such as hold-voltage and on-current, hot-phonon and hot-electron effects, power dissipation, degradation/reliability, pathways for degradation and ways to improve reliability along with application are solicited. Moreover, biological sensors, field-emitters, integrated GaN electronics, and integration with other technologies are among the topics to be discussed.
-
Topics include single photon-sources to high-power and high-efficiency LEDs, with a special emphasis on micro-LEDs for display and other applications, and on photo diodes including avalanche varieties, inclusive of devices physics (theory and simulations), device processing, and applications in general as well as specific ones aimed at lighting, automotive, displays, bio-medicine, spectroscopy, quantum optics, etc. Topics particularly on efficiency, reliability, and extending wavelengths toward longer and shorter wavelengths, e.g. for UV LEDs and optical detectors will be featured.
