ABSTRACTHREM,TEM, and EDX were employed to study the cross sections of Au/Zn/Au and Au/Te/Au contacts to [001]-oriented GaAs substrates. The metal contacts fabricated by sequential vapor deposition were capped with an A12O3 thin film to form a closed system when subjected to a 420°C anneal for 3 min. For an as-deposited Au/Zn/Au/GaAs specimen, Zn was found to react with Au to form ordered phases of Au3Zn. These phases were found to be stable upon annealing. The interface between the annealed metallization and GaAs exhibited the same degree of uniformity and planarity as that of the as-deposited specimen. For a Au/Te/Au/GaAs specimen, annealing resulted in epitaxial growth of Ga2Te3 grains, forming a basically flat interface with GaAs, while Au single-crystal grains were found to protrude rather extensively into GaAs to form a facetted interface with the substrate.

Abstract Thin layer ZnTe-CdSe heterojunctions were produced by vapor phase epitaxial growth of ZnTe and CdSe layers on mica and single-crystal ZnSe substrates. These heterojunctions photosensitivity covers the wavelength region of 0.56–0.85 μm. The shape of photosensitivity spectral dependence of ZnTe-CdSe heterojunction depends on the components thickness and their doping level. Thin layer ZnTe-CdSe epitaxial heterojunction parameters under illumination of 80 mW/cm2 (AM1.5) are: FF=0.53, Uoc=0.72V, Isc=14.8 mA/cm2, efficiency η=7.1%. Thin film polycrystalline ZnTe-CdSe heterojunctions having the efficiency η=4.3%, Uoc=0.54 V, Isc=10.6 mA/cm2 were fabricated by using As or Cu doped ZnTe layers and In doped CdSe layers produced by HWT.

ABSTRACTWe have investigated the use of tertiarybutylarsine (tBAs) as an As source in the surface-selective growth of GaAs and AlGaAs by low-pressure OMVPE. Deposition was carried out onto GaAs substrates partly masked with SiNx. Triethylgallium (TEGa) and trimethylaluminum (TMAl) were used as precursors along with either arsine or tBAs. Growth pressures were in the range 0.3 to 3.0 Torr. The usual trends of decreasing deposition on the mask with increasing temperature, decreasing group V/III ratio, and decreasing pressure were observed. At very low group V/III ratios, for either As precursor, single crystal material with a pitted surface was obtained. A reduction in the nucleation of polycrystalline material on the mask was observed when tBAs was used in place of AsH3.
