Abstract

Metalorganic chemical vapor deposition was used to deposit AlxGa1-xN active layers with varying aluminum compositions on basal plane sapphire substrate. AlxGa 1-xN (x < 0.5) ultraviolet photodetectors have been fabricated and characterized with cut-off wavelengths as short as 260 nm. Carrier lifetimes on the order of 10 milliseconds were estimated from frequency dependent measurements of the responsivity.
