Abstract

A metalorganic-hydride vapor phase epitaxy (MOHVPE) system is generally disclosed, along with methods of forming epilayers on a substrate utilizing the MOHVPE system. The system includes a reaction chamber, a nitrogen source gas, a HVPE-like system, and a MOCVD-like system. The metal source of the HVPE-like system is located outside of the reaction chamber. The MOHVPE system is particularly well suited for use in nitride-based devices, such as group III-nitride based devices. The presently disclosed methods and systems combine the advantages of the well known MOCVD, pulsed atomic layer epitaxy (PALE), and HVPE techniques, while minimizing the disadvantages. Additionally, both techniques can be utilized to grow layers on the same substrate without removing the substrate from the reaction chamber.
