Abstract

Si29 implants have been performed in InGaAs and InAlAs single layers as well as in InGaAs/InAlAs heterostructures. Nearly 100% activation has been obtained in InGaAs after conventional furnace annealing or rapid thermal annealing. On the other hand, a low activation efficiency (30%) has been observed in InAlAs. A preliminary photoluminescence measurements study shows that an appreciable fraction of Si exists in the form of complex centers. Hall effect and specific contact resistivity maps carried out in the heterostructures indicate a very good homogeneity of the electrical parameters over a 4 cm2 sample and give a satisfactory value of the specific contact resistivity (10−7 ω.cm2)
