摘要: High quality Al0.48In0.52As layers with specular morphology and narrowest reported X-ray linewidths of 24 seconds arc have been grown on InP substrates by LP MOVPE at temperatures 680-710 degrees C. Background carrier concentrations were in the range 8*1515-4*1016 cm-3 room temperature mobilities as high 1900 cm2 V-1 s-1 for growth under optimum conditions. Doping 1017-2*1018 was achieved using a H2S/H2 mixture. Improvements structural electrical concurrent successful Schottky barrier measurements where heights up to phi B=0.73 eV obtained from C-V diodes evaporated PtAu. These results important implications development Ga0.47In0.53As/Al0.48As HEMTS InP-based opto-electronic devices.
