AbstractGaAs1–xPx (0.2 <; x < 0.7) was grown by metalorganic molecular beam epitaxy with a GaP buffer layer on Si for visible light-emitting devices. Insertion of the GaP buffer layer resulted in bright photoluminescence of the GaAsP epilayer. Pre-treatment of the Si substrate to avoid SiC formation was also critical to obtain good crystallinity of GaAsP. Dislocation formation, microstructure and photoluminescence in GaAsP grown layer are described. A GaAsP pn junction fabricated on GaP emitted visible light (˜1.86 eV). An initial GaAsP pn diode fabricated on Si emitted infrared light.

ABSTRACTAn investigation of the growth mechanism for RF-plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy of cubic GaN films using a nitrided AlGaAs buffer layer was carried out by in-situ reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and high resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD). It was found that hexagonal GaN nuclei grow on (1, 1, 1) facets during nitridation of the AlGaAs buffer layer, but a highly pure, cubic-phase GaN epilayer was grown on the nitrided AlGaAs buffer layer.

Temperature And Growth

ABSTRACTSilicon-Germanium (SiGe) has become increasingly attractive to semiconductor manufacturers over the last decade for use in high performance devices. In order to produce thin layers of device grade SiGe with low concentrations of point defects and well-controlled doping profiles, advanced growth and deposition techniques such as molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) are used. One of the key issues in modeling dopant diffusion during subsequent processing is the concentration of grown-in point defects. The incorporation of vacancy clusters and vacancy point defects in 200nm SiGe/Si layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy over different buffer layers has been observed using beam-based positron annihilation spectroscopy. Variables included the type of buffer layer, the growth temperature and growth rate for the buffer, and the growth temperature and growth rate for the top layer. Different growth conditions resulted in different relaxation amounts in the top layer, but in all samples the dislocation density was below 106 cm−2. Preliminary results indicate a correlation between the size, type and concentration of vacancy defects and the buffer layer growth temperature. At high buffer layer growth temperature of 500°C the vacancy point defect concentration is below the PAS detectable limit of approximately 1015 cm−3. As the buffer layer growth is decreased to a minimum value of 300°C, large vacancy clusters are observed in the buffered layer and vacancy point defects are observed in the SiGe film. These results are relevant to the role played by point defects grown-in at temperatures below ∼350°C in modeling dopant diffusion during processing.

ABSTRACTM-plane GaN(1100) is grown by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy on ZnO(1100) substrates. A low-temperature GaN buffer layer is found to be necessary to obtain good structural quality of the films. Well oriented (1100) GaN films are obtained, with a slate like surface morphology. On the GaN(1100) surfaces, reconstructions with symmetry of c(2×2) and approximate “4×5” are found under N- and Ga-rich conditions, respectively. We propose a model for Ga-rich conditions with the “4×5” structure consisting of ≥ 2 monolayers of Ga terminating the GaN surface.
