Résumé: The behavior of the E-2 and A(1)(LO) optical phonons of hexagonal indium nitride under hydrostatic pressure was studied using Raman spectroscopy. Linear pressure coefficients and the corresponding Gruneisen parameters for both modes were determined for the wurtzite structure up to 11.6 GPa, close to the starting pressure of the hexagonal to rocksalt phase transition of InN. Raman spectra acquired within the 11.6 to 13.2 GPa pressure range suggest that wurtzite InN undergoes a gradual phase transition, and the reverse transformation exhibits a strong hysteresis effect during the downstroke.

Résumé: Europium was implanted into GaN through a 10 nm thick epitaxially grown AlN layer that protects the GaN surface during the implantation and also serves as a capping layer during the subsequent furnace annealing. Employing this AlN layer prevents the formation of an amorphous surface layer during the implantation. Furthermore, no dissociation of the crystal was observed by Rutherford backscattering and channeling measurements for annealing temperatures up to 1300degreesC. Remarkably, the intensity of the Eu related luminescence, as measured by cathodoluminescence at room temperature, increases by one order of magnitude within the studied annealing range between 1100 and 1300degreesC.

Résumé: Using measurements of phonons frequencies in large size InN quantum dots deposited by Metal-organic vapor phase epitaxy, we found these frequencies to experience a blue shift with increasing compression. Next we show that all the phonon frequencies reported in the literature are correlated to the strain state of InN and are, within the experimental uncertainty, consistent with each other.

Résumé: With respect to growing indium nitride quantum dots with very low surface densities for quantum cryptography applications, we have studied the metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy of InN onto GaN buffer layers. From lattice mismatch results the formation of self-assembled dots. The effects of the growth temperature, V/III molar ratio, and deposition time are studied, and we demonstrate that quantum-sized dots of InN can be grown with a material crystalline quality similar to the quality of the GaN buffer layer, in densities of 10(7) to 10(8) cm(-2). Such low densities of dots allow for the realization of experiments or devices in which a single dot is isolated, and may be used in the near future to produce single-photon sources.

Résumé: We have demonstrated the giant enhancement of second-harmonic generation in a one-dimensional GaN photonic crystal structure caused by the simultaneous achievement of strong fundamental field confinement and quasi-phase matching conditions. We have firstly measured the linear dispersive properties of the resonant modes for various azimuthal directions to predict the quasi-phase matching conditions. The theory based on a rigorous scattering matrix method has provided a good description of the equi-frequency surfaces. We have then shown that the equi-frequency surfaces may be used to identify the angular situations for which the quasi-phase matching conditions can be satisfied. The SHG enhancement achieved due to the double resonance was 5000 times greater than for the unpatterned GaN layer. (C) 2003 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Résumé: Since the work of Favennec et al.[1] it is well known that the quenching of luminescence from rare earth ions decreases with the host band gap. This has led to a large activity with silicon implanted or doped with RE, and then GaAs was used, in hope to realize simple, cheap light emitters. With a band gap of 3.4 eV at room temperature, GaN is even better suited to such applications. As a matter of fact, Steckl et al.[2] have demonstrated a green light emitting device based on Er doped GaN. This resulted in a renewed effort in this direction, but the crystal quality still have to be mastered and the physical phenomenon involved to be understood. In this work, GaN and Er-doped GaN with various Er concentrations were grown by gas source molecular beam epitaxy on high quality GaN templates grown by metalorganic chemical vapour deposition. In order to understand the influence of the Er incorporation on the crystal quality of GaN, Er-doped GaN were grown with a concentration between 0.1% and 5%. High quality undoped GaN were also grown, as a reference material, to show how the smallest amount of Er may affect drastically the structural and optical properties. All the samples were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, atomic force microscopy and X-ray diffraction. With these measurements, we demonstrate a strong correlation between the Er concentration and the surface roughness and the crystalline quality. This study shows that the activation of the Erbium luminescence is not improved with improving crystal quality. This assumption supports the idea that Er luminescence should be related to defect center in GaN.

Résumé: Bragg mirrors are highly interesting structures for a large set of applications including vertical cavity lasers and the upcoming range of devices based on microcavities. Although the nitride semiconductors are performing fairly well in optoelectronic applications, it is not straightforward to realize Bragg mirrors based on this material system, due to the low optical index differences between GaN and AlN. Moreover, the lattice parameter difference between these materials will generate crystal defects, which prevent the stacking of a large number of periods, adding to the difficulty. In this work, we have grown high reflectivity Bragg mirrors, with a band centered in the visible blue range. The structures were first modelled, then grown by low pressure MOCVD, and were optimised using an in-situ reflectivity system.;This in-situ reflectivity measurement was compared to a calculated profile, to enable real-time control of the structures. The samples were characterized by transmission electron microscopy and reflectivity. It was possible to realize samples with 90% reflectivity near 400 nm.
