The influences of arsenic interstitials and dislocations on the lattice parameters of undoped semi-insulating (SI) GaAs single crystals were analyzed. It was shown that the dislocations in such crystals serve as effective gettering sites for arsenic interstitials due to the deformation energy of dislocations. The average excess arsenic in GaAs epilayers grown by molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) at low temperatures (LT) is about 1%, and the lattice parameters of these epilayers are larger than those of liquid-encapsulated Czochralski-grown (LEG) SI-GaAs by about 0.1%. The atomic ratio, [As]/([Ga] + [As]), in SI-GaAs grown by low-pressure (LP) LEC is the nearest to the strict stoichiometry compared with those grown by high-pressure (HP) LEC and vertical gradient freeze (VGF). After multiple wafer annealing (MWA), the crystals grown by HPLEC become closer to be strictly stoichiometric.

An analytical model is proposed to understand backgating in GaAs metal-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MESFETs), in which the effect of channel-substrate (CS) junction is included. We have found that the limitation of CS junction to leakage current will cause backgate voltage to apply directly to CS junction and result in a threshold behavior in backgating effect. A new and valuable expression for the threshold voltage has been obtained. The corresponding threshold electric field is estimated to be in the range of 1000-4000 V/cm and for the first time is in good agreement with reported experimental data. More, the eliminated backgating effect in MESFETs that are fabricated on the GaAs epitaxial layer grown at low temperature is well explained by our theory. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.

The influences of microdefects and dislocations on the lattice parameters of undoped semi-insulating GaAs single crystals were analyzed, and a novel nondestructive method for measuring stoichiometry in undoped semi-insulating GaAs was established in this letter. The comparison of this method with coulometric titration indicates that the method of nondestructive measurements is indeed convenient and reliable. (C) 1996 American Institute of Physics.

The dislocations and precipitates in SI-GaAs single crystals are revealed by ultrasonic-aided Abrahams-Buiocchi etching (USAB), and the etch pits are observed and measured by metalloscope and scanning electron microscope (SEM) equipped with an energy dispersive X-ray spectrometer (EDS), respectively. The size of etch pit revealed by USAB etching is about 1 order of magnitude smaller than that revealed by molten KOH. The amount of arsenic atoms in the dislocation-dense zone is about 1% larger than that in an adjacent dislocation-free zone measured by EDS attached to SEM, which indicates that the excess arsenic atoms adjacent to the dislocation-dense zone are attracted to the dislocations and precipitate there due to the deformation energy.

A technologically important undoped semi-insulating (SI) GaAs single crystal was successfully grown in the Chinese recoverable satellite as far as we know for the first time by using a similar growth configuration described previously. The experimental results proved that the space SI GaAs crystals have a lower density of defects and defect-impurity complexes as well as a better uniformity.

The electronic absorption of EL2 centers has been clarified to be related to the electron acid hole photoionizations, and the transition from its ground state to metastable state, respectively. Under an illumination with a selected photon energy in the near infrared region, these three processes with different optical cross sections will show different kinetics against the illumination time. It has recently been shown that the photosensitivity (measured under 1.25 eV illumination) of the local vibrational mode absorption induced by some deep defect centers in SI-GaAs is a consequence of the electron and hole photoionizations of EL2. This paper directly measures the kinetics of the electronic transition associated with EL2 under 1.25 eV illumination, which implies the expected charge transfer among different charge states of the EL2 center. A calculation based on a simple rate equation model is in good agreement with the experimental results.

This paper proposes a novel noise optimization technique. The technique gives analytical formulae for the noise performance of inductively degenerated CMOS low noise amplifier (LNA) circuits with an ideal gate inductor for a fixed bias voltage and nonideal gate inductor for a fixed power dissipation, respectively, by mathematical analysis and reasonable approximation methods. LNA circuits with required noise figure can be designed effectively and rapidly just by using hand calculations of the proposed formulae. We design a 1.8 GHz LNA in a TSMC 0.25 pan CMOS process. The measured results show a noise figure of 1.6 dB with a forward gain of 14.4 dB at a power consumption of 5 mW, demonstrating that the designed LNA circuits can achieve low noise figure levels at low power dissipation.

Semi-insulating (SI) InP materials have been prepared under different stoichiometric conditions, including Fe-doping in indium-rich melt and high temperature annealing undoped wafer in phosphorus and iron phosphide ambients. Deep level defects related with non-stoichiometry have been detected in the SI-InP samples. A close relationship between the material quality of electrical property and native deep defects has been revealed by a comprehensive study of defects in as-grown Fe-doped and annealed undoped SI-InP materials. Fe-doped SI-InP material with low carrier mobility and poor thermal stability contains a high concentration of deep defects with energy levels in the range of 0.1-0.4eV. The suppression of the defects by high temperature annealing undoped InP leads to the manufacture of high quality SI-InP with high mobility and good electrical uniformity. A technology for the growth of high quality SI-InP through stoichiometry control has been proposed based on the results.

Properties of Fe-doped semi-insulating (SI) InP with different iron concentrations are studied by using Hall effect, current-voltage (I-V), photoluminescence spectroscopy (PL) and photocurrent spectroscopy (PC) measurements. I-V characteristics of SI InP strongly depend on Fe doping concentration. Fe doping concentration also influences optical properties and defective formation in as-grown SI InP. Band-gap narrowing phenomenon and defects in Fe doped SI InP are studied using PI and PC.

Semi-insulating (SI) InP wafers of 50 and 75mm in diameter can be obtained by annealing of undoped liquid encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) InP at 930 ℃ for 80h. The annealing ambient can be pure phosphorus (PP) or iron phosphide (IP). The IP-SI InP wafers have good electrical parameters and uniformity of whole wafer. However, PP-SI InP wafers exhibit poor uniformity and electrical parameters, Photoluminescence which is subtle to deep defect appears in IP-annealed semi-insulating InP. Traps in annealed SI InP are detected by the spectroscopy of photo-induced current transient. The results indicate that there are fewer traps in IP-annealed undoped SI InP than those in as-grown Fe-doped and PP-undoped SI-undoped SI InP. The formation mechanism of deep defects in annealed undoped InP is discussed.
