AbstractWe have shown that two-dimensional layers of arsenic nano-clusters separated by cluster-free GaAs matrix can be formed using indium delta-doping of GaAs films grown by molecular beam epitaxy at low (200°C) temperature. Spatially ordered structures of As clusters have been obtained in the epitaxial LT GaAs films doped with Si donors, Be acceptors and undoped as well.

AbstractNominal 100 Å and 150 Å thick GaAs layers were deposited on Si substrates by a modulated molecular beam technique and normal molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) at 300 °C and 375 °C respectively for plan view and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy (TEM) examinations. From coverage of Moire fringes, it is found that the nucleated GaAs films grown by the modulated molecular beam technique were thinner, streaker and more two-dimensional than the MBE grown films. The same modulated molecular beam technique was also used for the deposition of the initial buffer layer of 3µm thick GaAs on Si films. Results from the 77k photoluminescence(PL) and double crystal X ray diffraction measurements showed that these films have superior optical and structural quality compared to similar films grown by normal two-step MBE. The improvement is attributed to a more two-dimensional nucleation of GaAs films associated with the modulated molecular beam growth technique.

Sn has been used extensively as an n-type dopant in GaAs grown by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE). The surface accumulation of Sn during the growth of Sn-doped GaAs has been observed by several investigators. It is still not clear whether the accumulation of Sn is a kinetically hindered process, as proposed first by Wood and Joyce, or surface segregation due to thermodynamic factors. The proposed donor-incorporation mechanisms were based on experimental results from such techniques as secondary ion mass spectrometry, Auger electron spectroscopy, and C-V measurements. In the present study, electron microscopy was used in combination with cross-section specimen preparation. The information on the morphology and microstructure of the surface accumulation can be obtained in a fine scale and may confirm several suggestions from indirect experimental evidence in the previous studies.

ABSTRACTIn this work we demonstrate that photopumped quantum wellheterostructure lasers with excellent optical quality can be grown ontop of a LT GaAs buffer layer by molecular beam epitaxy. Hightemperature thermal annealing of these lasers blue-shifts the laseremission wavelengths but the presence/absence of a LT GaAs layerhad little effect on the overall laser thresholds. Also, to first order itwas not necessary to include an AlAs barrier layer to preventadverse effects (as has been necessary in the gate stack of MESFETs to prevent carrier compensation).
