3 Internal Fields and Charges The nitride semiconductors have a hexagonal wurtzite structure. Heterojunction interfaces are typically pseudomorphic Large strains are present Piezoelectric fields. AlGaN/GaN interfaces present 2-dimensional electron gas Dislocations are expected to have associated electronic charges. There is a need to probe and measure the internal fields and charges at dislocations and interfaces There has been no method to do this directly. In the last three years we have developed methods and demonstrated the use of electron holography for measuring the fields and charges at dislocations and interfaces in the nitride semiconductors.
4 History of Electron Holography In 1948, Gabor coined the word hologram. 1 Hologram öλος (olos) complete γραµ (gram) message The complete information carried by a plane-wave (Aexp[iθ]) includes both amplitude A, and phase θ information. Interference method is used to record complete information. Schematic of interference principle 1. D. Gabor, Nature 161, 777 (1948).
5 Schematic of Electron Holography Consider a free electron traveling through vacuum Consider a free electron traveling through a thin foil: Vacuum Material Vacuum
6 Schematic of Electron Holography The wavelength of the electron beam is shorter inside the material because the potential energy has changed (dropped) and therefore the kinetic energy has increased (if the total energy of the electron is to remain constant). Vacuum Material Vacuum The change in wavelength will cause a phase shift in the signal wave (propagating through the sample) with respect to the reference wave (traveling through vacuum only).

There are two possible explanations: 1. The critical thickness has been exceeded and the layer is relaxed 2. The fields have been screened due to the large well width

In addition to the dipole field near the substrate interface, there exist potential variations of the order of.05v/2nm in that region.

35 Conclusions: 2DEG Density at GaN/AlGaN Using electron holography, we have measured the energy offset ( E 2 ) at GaN/Al x Ga 1-x N. For x = 0.19, E 2 = 0.21 ± 0.1 ev; For x = 0.37, E 2 = 0.38 ± 0.1 ev. Three types of charges are present at heterostructures: free carriers, polarization sheet charge, and interface dipole. The two dimensional electron gas density (n s ) is determined from the energy profiles. It increases with aluminum concentration. For x = 0.19, n s = 1.8 x cm -2 ; For x = 0.37, n s = 2.9 x cm -2. Surface depletion layers and radiation damage are two factors to affect electron holography measurements. J. Cai, F. A. Ponce et al, Phys. Stat. Sol. A 188, 833 (2001).

49 Conclusions: Charge states at threading dislocations Electron holography was performed on threading dislocations of undoped, Zn- and Mg- doped GaN epilayers. All dislocations are negatively charged in undoped (n-type) materials. The line charge densities of edge, screw and mixed type dislocations are 0.3, 1.0 and 0.6 ± 0.2 e/c, respectively. The corresponding core radii are around 15, 40 and 20 ± 10 nm. Positive, negative and neutral DL cores have been identified in the Zndoped material. Potential fluctuation between DLs were also observed. Such potential profiles are attributed to the semi-insulating nature of the material. Edge type DLs have positively charged cores in Mg-doped GaN. Further studies are needed to identify the charge states of screw and mixed dislocations.
50 General Conclusions Using electron holography we have demonstrated that we can effectively measure the electrostatic potential at dislocations and at heterojunction interfaces. From the potential we can determine the electrostatic charge distribution with spatial resolution down to the Angstrom level. We have applied this technique to: InGaN quantum wells. AlGaN/GaN 2DEG systems. Dislocations in GaN epilayers with different doping conditions.
