AbstractDefects such as dislocations and interfaces play a crucial role in the performance of heterostracture devices. The full potential of GaAs on Si heterostructures can only be realized by controlling the defect density. The reduction of threading dislocations by the use of strained layer superlattices has been studied in these heterostructures. Several superlattice structures have been used to reduce the density of threading dislocations in the GaAs epilayer. The use of strained layer superlattices in conjunction with rapid thermal annealing was most effective in reducing threading dislocation density. Transmission electron microscopy has been used to study the dislocation density reduction and the interaction of threading dislocations with the strained layers. A model has been developed based on energy considerations to determine the critical thickness required for the bending of threading dislocations.

SUMMARY ABSTRACTDespite the 4.2% lattice mismatch, several laboratories have demonstrated that the quality of GaAs grown on Si is high enough for practical device applications [1–5]. At the GaAs/Si interface, a dislocation density of roughly 1012cm−2 is required to accommodate the mismatch. Therefore various techniques of dislocation filtering are necessary to provide material with acceptable dislocation counts. Among these techniques are the use of tilted substrates, strained layer superlattices, and intermediate layers.
