SYNTHESIS AND OPTICAL PROPERTIES OF Ga2O3 NANOWIRES GROWN ON GaS SUBSTRATE

Abstract

Gallium oxide (β-Ga2O3) nanowires were synthesized by heat treatment of single crystal β-GaS plates in air. Crystal structure and composition of synthesized materials were studied by X-ray diffraction, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and Raman spectroscopy. Thermal treatment of β-GaS plates at 1023 K leads to the formation of a Ga2O3 (native oxide) layer on β-GaS (0001) surface of plates. Layer thickness and size of Ga2O3 wires contained were found to depend on temperature and duration of applied heat treatment. For 1023 K and 6 h, the length of Ga2O3 wires laid in the range from units to tens of nanometers, while for 1123 K and 30 min, between 30 and 40 μm.
