Abstract

Composition modulations with a wavelength of -1-3 nm have been observed by transmission electron microscopy in nominally uniform AlxGa1-x As grown by molecular beam epitaxy. We describe the characterisation of this phenomenon and discuss its possible origins, in the light of the reported existence of a long range ordered structure.
