Abstract

Defects and microstructures in a ternary GaAsxP−x compound have been studied by transmission electron microscopy. The compound was grown on a (100) GaP substrate by vapor phase epitaxial. Crystal growth striation contrast was detected in a TEM image. This contrast was explained by local compositional variation of As and P. The distribution of misfit dislocations in the interface region was also studied.
