摘 要：n-VO2/p-GaN based oxide-nitride heterojunctions were realized by growing high quality VO2 films with precisely controlled thickness on p-GaN/sapphire substrates by oxide molecular beam epitaxy （O-MBE）.The high crystalline quality of the n-VO2/p-GaN heterojunctions were confirmed by X-ray diffraction （XRD） and scanning electron microscope （SEM） analysis.The phase transition characteristics of the as-grown n-VO2/p-GaN heterojunctions were systematically investigated by temperature-dependent resistivity and infrared transmittance measurements.The results indicated that an excellent reversible metal-to-insulator （MIT） transition is observed with an abrupt change in both resistivity and infrared transmittance （IR） at 330 K,which was lower than the 341 K for bulk single crystal VO2.Remarkably,the resistivity-temperature curve was well consistent with that obtained from the temperature dependent IR transmittance.Meanwhile,the current-voltage characteristics originated from the n-VO2/p-GaN interface were demonstrated both before and after MIT of VO2 overlayer,which were attributed to the p-n junction behavior and Schottky contact character,respectively.The design and modulation of the n-VO2/p-GaN based heterostructure devices will benefit significantly from these achievements.
