Abstract:The optical absorptions and the defect densities of GaAs grown by low temperature molecular-beam-epitaxy at growth temperatures between 200-580 °C were evaluated by photothermal deflection spectroscopy. The shapes of the absorption spectra exhibit EL2-like characteristics. Defect densities were found to be in the range of 1018-1019 cm−3. The PDS phase spectra were shown to be useful to differentiate the absorptions of the epilayer from those of the bulk.

ABSTRACTThe localized vibrational mode (LVM) of silicon donor (SiGa) in molecular beam epitaxial GaAs layers grown at various temperatures is studied using the infrared absorption technique. It is found that the total integrated absorption of this LVM is decreased as the growth temperature decreases. This finding suggests a nonsubstitutional incorporation of Si in GaAs layers grown at ∼200 °C. On the other hand, an almost complete substitutional incorporation is obtained in GaAs layers grown at temperatures higher that 350 °C. Thermal annealing does not cause any recovery of the SiGa LVMs in present GaAs layers grown at ∼200°C.
