Agnitron Technology

Agnitron to attend the upcoming 21st International Conference on Metal Organic V***r Phase Epitaxy (ICMOVPE XXI) delivering four presentations.
The 21st International Conference on Metal Organic V***r Phase Epitaxy (ICMOVPE XXI) is scheduled for May 12-17, 2024 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Agnitron will be represented by Dr. Andrei Osinsky and Mr. William Brand, presenting two papers and two posters.

The first two topics to be presented by Agnitron will be on nitride materials systems and will be delivered by Dr. Andrei Osinsky, the president and CEO at Agnitron Technology. The first paper, titled “MOCVD Growth of Epitaxial Ferroelectric ScAlN and Related Alloys,” will discuss the use of specialized MOCVD reactor to grow ferroelectric nitrides such as ScAlN and YAlN. The growth of these materials using the commercial MOCVD poses challenges due to the absence of Sc/Y metal-organic precursors with high v***r pressure. The presentation highlights the need for specialized high-temperature precursor delivery modules and the impact of process conditions on efficiently incorporating Sc or Y into the lattice of AlN. Additionally, Dr. Osinsky will discuss the characteristics of HEMTs and ferroelectric devices based on MOCVD-grown ScAlN.

Dr. Osinsky’s second topic is “Large Area III-Nitride Device Structures on h-BN—Growth, Exfoliation and Transfer to Different Substrates.” The presentation will cover recent advancements in the MOCVD growth of two-dimensional h-BN films on wafers as large as 100 mm and the growth of GaN and AlGaN/GaN HEMTs on top of them. It will also include a discussion of transferring these materials onto alternative substrates.

The other two topics will be based on the MOCVD of β-Ga2O3 and will be presented by Mr. William Brand, a process engineer at Agnitorn Technology. The first topic Mr. Brand will present is “Recent Advances in Uniform Growth and Doping of β-Ga2O3 Using MOVPE.” This work will discuss recent advancements in Ga­2O3 growth, employing a patented, innovative close-injection showerhead (CIS) design. This work highlights the growth of high-quality β-Ga2O3 thin films at a growth rate of up to 20 µm/hr while maintaining excellent thickness and doping uniformities, critical for the growth of thick vertical devices and scaling up the process to large substrates.

Mr. Brand’s second topic is on achieving compensative doping in Ga2O3 using nitrogen. The paper’s title is “Compensative Nitrogen Doping of β-Ga2O3 by MOVPE.” The presentation focuses on using various nitrogen sources for nitrogen doping in MOVPE of Ga2O3, which is crucial for various applications, including the efficient interface compensation needed to realize effective devices.

Agnitron Technology to attend the International Conference on Compound Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology-CS Mantech.

Agnitron Technology scientists and engineers will attend the CS Mantech conference in Orlando, Florida May 15- May 18. The company will participate in the poster session scheduled for Thursday afternoon and will exhibit in the exhibitor’s hall Tuesday-Thursday.

Dr. Tim Vogt of Agnitron will present his recent work entitled “Manufacturable processes and performance characteristics for few-layer hexagonal boron nitride based templates on sapphire.” He’ll present the growth methods, characterization and equipment used to grow and characterize the material.

Agnitron has an extensive laboratory with multiple tools growing all manner of materials routinely. Likewise, we have an extensive array of characterization tools on-site. Additionally, we have a strong network of academic and commercial collaborators that we share technologies with as well characterize and evaluate materials together.

His work is the result of the Agnitron technical laboratory team’s efforts at Agnitron’s HQ in MN. Agnitron is continuously improving, updating, and deploying the latest technologies in the Chanhassen laboratory. Recent developments in the Agnitron hardware and software control systems have been crucial to the results of Dr. Vogt’s current work.
