A semiconductor structure and a scheme for forming a layer of amorphous material on a semiconductor substrate are provided. In accordance with one embodiment of the present invention, a semiconductor structure is provided comprising an amorphous alloy formed over at least a portion of a semiconductor substrate. The amorphous alloy comprises amorphous aluminum nitride (AlN) and amorphous gallium nitride (GaN). The amorphous alloy may be characterized by the following formula: AlxGa1-xN, where x is a value greater than zero and less than one. The amorphous alloy may further comprise indium nitride. Relative proportions of aluminum and gallium in the amorphous aluminum gallium nitride alloy are controlled to engineer the band gap of the amorphous alloy. |
