Manufacturing method of gallium nitride film
A method for manufacturing a gallium nitride film includes the steps of placing a substrate so as to face a target containing nitrogen and gallium in a vacuum chamber, supplying a sputtering gas into the vacuum chamber, supplying a nitrogen radical into the vacuum chamber, generating a plasma of the sputtering gas by application of a voltage to the target, generating a gallium ion by a collision of an ion of the sputtering gas with the target, and stopping the application of the voltage to the target and depositing gallium nitride on the substrate. The gallium nitride is generated by a reaction of the gallium ion with a nitrogen anion which is generated by a reaction of an electron in the vacuum chamber with the nitrogen radical.

INORGANIC-BLENDED P-TYPE SEMICONDUCTOR AND METHOD OF PREPARATION THEREOF
Inorganic semiconductors typically have limited p-type behavior due to the scarcity of holes and the localized valence band maximum, hindering the progress of complementary devices and circuits. In this work, we propose an inorganic blending strategy to activate the hole-transporting character in an inorganic semiconductor compound, namely tellurium-selenium-oxygen (TeSeO). By rationally combining intrinsic p-type semimetal, semiconductor, and wide-bandgap semiconductor into a single compound, the TeSeO system displays tunable bandgaps ranging from 0.7 to 2.2 eV. Wafer-scale ultrathin TeSeO films, which can be deposited at room temperature, display high hole field-effect mobility of 48.5 cm.sup.2/(Vs) and robust hole transport properties, facilitated by TeTe (Se) portions and OTeO portions, respectively.
Selective deposition processes on semiconductor substrates
Embodiments of the disclosure relate to methods of selectively depositing polysilicon after forming a flowable polymer film to protect a substrate surface within a feature. A first silicon (Si) layer is deposited by physical vapor deposition (PVD). The flowable polymer film is formed on the first silicon (Si) layer on the bottom. A portion of the first silicon (Si) layer is selectively removed from the top surface and the at least one sidewall. The flowable polymer film is removed. In some embodiments, a second silicon (Si) layer is selectively deposited on the first silicon (Si) layer to fill the feature. In some embodiments, the remaining portion of the first silicon (Si) layer on the bottom is oxidized to form a first silicon oxide (SiOx) layer on the bottom, and a silicon (Si) layer or a second silicon oxide (SiOx) layer is deposited on the first silicon oxide (SiOx) layer.
