Abstract

Corundum-structured α-phase Ga 1.4 Sn 0.6 O 3 thin films have been deposited on m -plane Al 2 O 3 (300) substrates using laser molecular beam epitaxy technology. With increasing of the oxygen partial pressure, the crystal lattice of Ga 1.4 Sn 0.6 O 3 films expands due to tin ions valence changes from Sn 4+ to Sn 2+ . The resistivity of the film deposited under 3 × 10 –5 Pa is 3.54 × 10 4 Ω·cm, which decreases by about 2 orders of magnitude than that fabricated under 3 × 10 –1 Pa. The mixture valence of Sn 2+ and Sn 4+ ions leads to the impurity altitude compensation effect. The deep ultraviolet photodetector based on α-phase Ga 1.4 Sn 0.6 O 3 thin films was fabricated. With the oxygen partial pressure reducing gradually, the dark current and the photocurrent increase, and the relaxation time constants diminish, respectively.
