Interest has recently increased in the possibility of growing III-V compounds epitactically on non-polar substrates to produce device quality material. Antiphase boundaries (APBs) may then develop in the GaAs epilayer because it has sphalerite structure (face-centered cubic with a two-atom basis). This planar defect may then influence the electrical behavior of the GaAs epilayer. The orientation of APBs and their propagation into GaAs epilayers have been investigated experimentally using both flat-on and cross-section transmission electron microscope techniques. APBs parallel to (110) plane have been viewed at the atomic resolution and compared to simulated images.Antiphase boundaries were observed in GaAs epilayers grown on (001) Ge substrates. In the image shown in Fig.1, which was obtained from a flat-on sample, the (110) APB planes can be seen end-on; the faceted APB is visible because of the stacking fault-like fringes arising from a lattice translation at this interface.

ABSTRACTThe effect of numerous plasma reative ion etch and physical milling processes on the electrical behavior of GaAs bulk substrates has been investigated by means of electric microwave absorption. It was seen that plasma treatments at quite low energies may significantly affect the electrical quality of the etched semiconductor. Predominantly physical plasma etchants (Ar) were seen to create significant damage at very low energies. Chemical processes (involving Cl or F), while somewhat less pernicious, also gave rise to electrical substrate damage, the effect greater for hydrogenic ambients. Whereas rapid thermal anneal treatments tend to worsen the electrical integrity, some substrates respond positively to long-time high temperature anneal steps.

This paper presents impedance measurements of ferroelectric structures involving lead-free oxide and polymer-oxide composite coatings for sensing and energy harvesting applications. Three different ferroelectric materials grown by conventional microfabrication technologies on solid or flexible substrates are investigated for their basic resonant characteristics. Equivalent electrical circuit models are applied to all cases to explain the electrical behavior of the structures, according to the materials type and thickness. The analytical results show good agreement with the experiments carried out on a basic types of excited thin-film piezoelectric transducers. Additionally, temperature and frequency dependences of the dielectric permittivity and losses are measured for the polymer-oxide composite device in relation with the surface morphology before and after introduction of the polymer to the functional film.

Stress Softening

Constitutive equations of cyclic strain and stress softening for materials with low internal stress levels are derived from the rate theory. The study shows that over the high stress and low temperature range where the description of plastic flow in cyclic softening can be approximated with activation over a single energy barrier, cyclic strain softening is well related to stress relaxation process while cyclic stress softening is related to creep process. The material structural characteristics for cyclic strain softening, cyclic stress softening and stress relaxation are identical. Subsequently, it is shown that cyclic stress and strain softening within the high stress and low temperature range can be evaluated from the constitutive equations using the material structural characteristics measured from a simple stress relaxation test.
