ScAlMgOMagnesium Aluminate Scandium Oxide (SAM) Substrate

Magnesium Aluminate Scandium Oxide (ScAlMgO4), also known as SAM, is a promising substrate material for heteroepitaxial growth of GaN or ZnO. It is hexagonal with lattice constant a: 3.246 Å, c: 25.195 Å. With the smallest lattice mismatch with GaN (1.8%) and ZnO (0.09%), it is a much better substrate for the epitaxial of ZnO and GaN compare to sapphire and silicon. It is widely used as substrate for epitaxial growth, power devices, LED, and many other applications.
