Defects and Surfactant Action of Antimony on GaAs and GaAs1-xNx on GaAs [100] by Molecular Beam Epitaxy
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 February 2011
Abstract
Low temperature (4.5K) photoluminescence (PL) measurements of GaAs(N):Sb on GaAs grown by solid source molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) show a Sb-related defect peak at ∼1017nm (1.22eV). The magnitude of the Sb-related impurity PL peak corresponds in intensity with the prominence of the additional two-dimensional [115] high-resolution x-ray diffraction (HRXRD) defect peaks. The elimination of these defects can be a measure of the improvement in crystal quality of GaAsN:Sb and a Sb flux ≥ 1.3×10−8 Torr is needed to invoke the surfactant behavior in III-V dilute nitride MBE growth for a growth rate of 1μm/hr.
