A series of 1-mu m-thick undoped In0.53Ga0.47As with different substrate growth temperature (T-g) or different beam flux pressure (BFP) of As were grown on lattice-matched semi-insulating InP (001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). Van der Pauw Hall measurements were carried out for these In0.53Ga0.47As samples. The residual electron concentration decreased with increasing temperature from 77 to 140 K, but increased with increasing temperature from 140 to 300 K. Rapid thermal annealing (RTA) can reduce the residual electron concentration. The residual electron mobility increased with increasing temperature from 77 to 300 K. All these electrical properties are associated with As antisite defects. (c) 2006 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Electron irradiation-induced deep level defects have been studied in InP which has undergone high-temperature annealing in phosphorus and iron phosphide ambients, respectively. In contrast to a high concentration of irradiation-induced defects in as-grown and phosphorus ambient annealed InP, InP pre-annealed in iron phosphide ambient has a very low concentration of defects. The phenomenon has been explained in terms of a faster recombination of radiation-induced defects in the annealed InP. The radiation-induced defects in the annealed InP have been compared and studied. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Deep level defects in as-grown and annealed SI-InP samples were investigated by thermally stimulated current spectroscopy. Correlations between electrical property, compensation ratio, thermal stability and deep defect concentration in SI-InP were revealed. An optimized crystal growth condition for high quality SI-InP was demonstrated based on the experimental results.

The mode frequency and the quality factor of nanowire cavities are calculated from the intensity spectrum obtained by the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) technique and the Pade approximation. In a free-standing nanowire cavity with dielectric constant epsilon = 6.0 and a length of 5 mu m, quality factors of 130, 159, and 151 are obtained for the HE11 modes with a wavelength around 375 nm, at cavity radius of 60, 75, and 90 nm, respectively. The corresponding quality factors reduce to 78, 94, and 86 for a nanowire cavity standing on a sapphire substrate with a refractive index of 1.8. The mode quality factors are also calculated for the TE01 and TM01 modes, and the mode reflectivities are calculated from the mode quality factors.

Semi-insulating (SI) InP wafers of 2 and 3 in. diameters have been prepared by annealing undoped LEC InP at 930 degreesC for 80 h under pure phosphorus ambient (PP) and iron phosphide ambient (IP). The electrical uniformity of annealed undoped SI wafers, along with a Fe-doped as-grown SI LEC InP wafer, has been characterized by whole wafer PL mapping and radial Hall measurements. Defects in these wafers have been detected by photo-induced current transient spectroscopy (PICTS). The results indicated that the uniformity of IP wafer is much better than that of PP wafer and as-grown Fe-doped Si InP wafer. There are fewer traps in undoped SI InP IP wafer than in as grown Fe-doped and undoped SI InP PP wafer, as evidenced by PICTS. The good uniformity of the IP wafer is related to the nonexistence of high concentration of thermally induced defects. The mechanism for this phenomenon is discussed based on the results.

Red shifts of emission wavelength of self-organized In(Cla)As/GaAs quantum dots (QDs) covered by 3 nm thick InxGa1-xAs layer with three different In mole fractions (x = 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3, respectively) have been observed. Transmission electron microscopy images demonstrate that the stress along growth direction in the InAs dots was reduced due to introducing the InxGa1-xAs (x = 0.1, 0.2 and 0.3) covering layer instead of GaAs layer. Atomic force microscopy pictures show a smoother surface of InAs islands covered by an In0.2Ga0.8As layer. It is explained by the calculations that the redshifts of the photoluminescence (PL) spectra from the QDs covered by the InxGa1-xAs (x greater than or equal to 0.1) layers were mainly due to the reducing of the strain other than the InAs/GaAs intermixing in the InAs QDs. The temperature dependent PL spectra further confirm that the InGaAs covering layer can effectively suppress the temperature sensitivity of PL emissions. 1.3 mum emission wavelength with a very narrow linewidth of 19.2 mcV at room temperature has been obtained successfully from In,In0.5Ga0.5As/GaAs self-assembled QDs covered by a 3-nm In0.2Ga0.2As strain reducing layer.

Oxide-free InGaAlAs waveguides have been grown on the InP substrates patterned with pairs of SiO2 mask stripes using narrow stripe selective MOVPE. The mask stripe width is varied from 0 to 40 pm, while the window region width between a pair of mask stripes is fixed at 1.5, 2.5 and 3.5 mu m, respectively. Smooth surface s and flat interfaces are obtained in the selectively grown InQaAlAs waveguides. There exhibit strong dependences of the thickness enhancement ratio and the photoluminescence (PL) spectrum on the mask stripe width and the window region width for the InGaAlAs wavegwdes. A large PL peak wavelength shift of 79 nm and a PL full width of at half maximum (FWHM) of less than 64 meV are obtained simultaneously. Some possible interpretations for our investigations are presented by considering both the migration effect from a masked region (MMR) and the lateral vapor diffusion effect (LVD).

Improvement of the electrical property of semi-insulating InP by suppression of compensation defects
Resumo:
Semi-insulating (SI) InP obtained by iron phosphide ambient annealing has very low concentration of deep level defects and better electrical property than SI-InP annealed in phosphorus ambient. The defect suppression phenomenon correlates with Fe diffusion and substitution in the annealing process. Analysis of the experimental result suggests that a high activation ratio of incorporated Fe in InP has an effect of defect suppression in Fe-doped and Fe-diffused SI-InP.

Low pressure metalorganic chemical vapour deposition (LP-MOCVD) growth and characteristics of InAssb on (100) Gasb substrates are investigated. Mirror-like surfaces with a minimum lattice mismatch are obtained. The samples are studied by photoluminescence spectra, and the output is 3.17 mu m in wavelength. The surface of InAssb epilayer shows that its morphological feature is dependent on buffer layer. With an InAs buffer layer used, the best surface is obtained. The InAssb film shows to be of n-type conduction with an electron concentration of 8.52 x 10(16) cm(-3).

The wafer processing of Indium Phosphide (InP) is so important that it is getting more and more attentions. Lapping is a basic step just following the ingot cutting. In this paper, the influences of various processing parameters on the lapped wafer quality and lapping rate have been checked, the double-crystal X-ray diffraction results about lapped wafers also were presented here. According to the experimental results, the optimum lapping conditions have been obtained.
