Abstract

The elastic strain in 2 MeV He ion-bombarded pseudomorphic or lattice-relaxd GaInAs is found to vary by 13% over tlhe beam dose range, 5x1012 - 5×1015 cm-2, with a minimum at 5×1013 cm-2. The data suggest a beam-induced annealing effect at lower doses and the build-up of radiation damage at higher doses, which are also indicated by the phonon line shift data. The phonon shift and the elastic strain in lattice-relaxed GaInAs, bombarded with 15 MeV Cl ions, are approximately the same as in an ion-bombarded bulk GaAs. The lattice mismatch in parallel constant decreases for a sample with a lower misfit and increases for a sample with higher misfit with increasing beam dose. The phonon shift in a pseudomorphic GaInAs bombarded with 15 MeV Cl ions is smaller than in the relaxed samples by a factor of two.
