摘要: Changes of composition profiles in GaInAs layers sandwiched by InP, due to the layer thicknesses, were measured x-ray CTR scattering and cross-sectional STM techniques. Both techniques showed quite similar results, which indicates that measurements analyses give us correct both for group-III group-V atoms buried heterostructures non-destructively. Limits analysis are discussed, especially on spatial resolution grading below bottom interface.
