摘要: Intentional oxygen doping (≳1017 cm−3) of GaAs and Al0.30Ga0.70As epitaxial layers was achieved during metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy through use an oxygen‐bearing precursor, dimethylaluminum methoxide (CH3)2AlOCH3. The incorporation very low levels Al (AlAs mole fraction <0.005) in the leads to compensation intentionally introduced Si donors. Additionally, deep associated with were detected. introduction dimethyl aluminum AlxGa1−xAs growth did not alter mode or degrade crystallinity ternary layers, but incorporate high which compensated both indicates that resistivity buffer can be grown by epitaxy.
