We evaluated ZnO single crystals using a micro-line-focus-beam ultrasonic material characterization (LFB-UMC) system with an improved spatial resolution. We prepared two small ZnO single crystals grown by the hydrothermal synthesis method. Leaky surface acoustic waves (LSAWs) velocity distributions were measured at 225 MHz for {001} (c-plane), {100} (m-plane), and {101} (p-plane) of one specimen and cross-sectional surfaces (±c-plane) of the other specimen. For the former specimen, we found the facts that +c- and m-planes are very resistive and p- and -c-planes are very conductive. For the latter specimen, we observed very conductive regions surrounding a very resistive seed crystal and very resistive surface at +c- and m-planes surrounding the conductive regions. The information should reflect changes in growth conditions of ZnO single crystals and will be used for further understanding the crystal growth processes. We also demonstrated that system calibration can easily and stably be made using a standard specimen of YX- ZnO (independent with piezoelectricity). |
