    Notes: In this paper we examine the effect of coupling between the wells on the differential gain. We find, as for the gain peak, the differential gain at the gain peak is not a monotonic function of the barrier thickness. For relatively thick barriers inclusion of coupling reduces the differential gain but as the barrier gets thinner the differential gain can be significantly enhanced or suppressed. We also compare our calculations with those for single quantum well to show how the enhancement in differential gain in the multi quantum well laser, due to reduced state filling and higher modal gain is affected by well coupling. Without losing generality, the model assumes the quantum well region to be electric field free. Numerical examples are presented for a GaAs/Al0.2Ga0.8As double quantum well system. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The microscopic nature of the degradation of oxide layers in Si/SiO2/Si structures induced by annealing in the temperature range 1200–1320 °C in inert or weakly oxidizing atmospheres has been studied. Electron-spin-resonance measurements have been performed on unannealed and annealed samples subsequently subjected to γ or X radiation or hole injection. Two oxygen-vacancy-related defect centers were observed, the monovacancy Eγ' center and the multiple vacancy Eδ'—both were observed in substantially larger numbers in annealed oxides as compared to unannealed oxides. Etchback profiling of the paramagnetic defect distributions shows that they are distributed nonuniformly throughout the annealed oxides with the highest densities close to the two Si/SiO2 interfaces. Electrical measurements of fixed oxide charge induced by X irradiation indicate that annealing results in the creation of both positive and negative charge traps. The numbers of positive trapped charges and their radiation dose dependence are inconsistent with their origin being identified simply with the paramagnetic oxygen-vacancy centers. Infrared measurements of the O interstitial content of the float-zone Si substrates of annealed and unannealed samples reveal that the interstitial concentration increases as a function of anneal temperature/time. Atomic force microscopy measurements reveal that the SiO2/Si substrate interfaces are roughened during high-temperature annealing. The data are interpreted in terms of a model in which oxygen is gettered from the oxide film into the over- and underlying Si. The O are incorporated into the Si as interstitials and it is their solubility limit at the anneal temperature which drives the gettering process. The oxygen-vacancy defect profiles near to both Si/SiO2 interfaces are not well predicted by the gettering model suggesting that other interface-related defect creation processes may be active. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have grown a series of Fe samples on Au(111) by molecular beam epitaxy. Fe was grown on Au at 30 °C and shows clear reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) oscillations up to 8 monolayers, suggesting layer-by-layer growth on Au. A combined study of RHEED, medium energy ion scattering, and x-ray diffraction scans has strongly indicated that Fe initially grew as fcc(111) on Au(111) below the thickness of 3 monolayer and for the subsequent growth the Fe bcc(110) structure begins to form. Magneto-optical Kerr effect measurement has shown that the magnetization easy axis lies in the plane of the film for the thickness range from 3 to 20 Å and there is a perpendicular anisotropy when the thickness of Fe is about one monolayer. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: A low-energy (550 eV) argon-ion beam was used to directly bombard the backsurface of nitrided n-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (n-MOSFETs) after the completion of all conventional processing steps. The interface and oxide-charge trapping characteristics of the bombarded MOSFETs were investigated as compared to nonbombarded and reoxidized-nitrided n-MOSFETs. It was found that after bombardment, interface state density decreases and interface hardness against hot-carrier bombardment enhances, and oxide charge trapping properties were also improved. The improvements exhibit a turnaround behavior depending on bombardment conditions and could be attributed to stress compensation in the vicinity of the Si/SiO2 interface and an annealing effect. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: In this communication, we present a study of tip artifacts in atomic force microscope images of nanometer-scale cellular structures created on germanium surfaces by ion bombardment. It is demonstrated that the appearance of a columnar/granular morphology is due to severe image distortion when the tip size is comparable with the mean cell/hole diameter. These tip artifacts can often be deconvoluted by inverting the image and the lateral extension of the cell/hole can be reproduced with reasonable accuracy. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: p+-InSb/π-InAs1−xSbx/n+-InSb heterojunction photodiodes operating at near room temperature in the 8–13 μm region of infrared (IR) spectrum are reported. A room-temperature photovoltaic response of up to 13 μm has been observed at 300 K with an x≈0.85 sample. The voltage responsivity-area product of 3×10−5 V cm2/W has been obtained at 300 K for the λ=10.6 μm optimized device. This was close to the theoretical limit set by the Auger mechanism, with a detectivity at room temperature of ≈1.5×108 cm Hz1/2/W. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Step flow growth patterns have been observed on single-crystal (La,Ca)MnOδ (LCMO) thin films by atomic force microscopy. These films were grown on (110) NdGaO3 substrates by a simple facing-target sputtering method. The steps, of monolayer height (0.2 nm), are surprisingly straight and evenly spaced. The best sample has an average step width of about 400 nm which is comparable to that found on the molecular beam epitaxially grown GaAs. The step edges are parallel to the LCMO [001] direction indicating that the growth rates are anisotropic. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have studied the surface morphology and growth mechanism of metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy grown strained-layer InxGa1−xAs (x=0.2 or 0.5) on GaAs with atomic force microscopy. Morphological instability of monolayer steps was observed on a 10 nm thick strained-layer In0.2Ga0.8As. Three-dimensional (3D) growth was observed for x=0.5 when grown at 650 °C. By lowering the growth temperature to 600 °C, the growth mode is 2-D for 5 nm films (x=0.5). Monolayer steps and 2D islands can be seen. Increasing the layer thickness to 7.5 nm at 600 °C caused the growth of 3D islands and the generation of misfit dislocations. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: By monitoring the electric current image during conducting atomic force microscopy nano-patterning, a phenomenon that we term "resonant conducting" was found. This was characterized by a sharp peak at V=2.45±0.05 V in the averaged current-voltage plot. The electrical current is irreversible and decays very rapidly after repeat scanning, which implies that the resonant current is associated with the transient process from a hydrogen de-passivation to an oxygen passivation under the specific electrical field. On the practical side, "resonant conducting" provides a very sensitive method for visualization of H passivation of silicon on a nano-meter scale. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: AlxGa1−xN (0≤x≤1) ultraviolet photoconductors with cutoff wavelengths from 365 to 200 nm have been fabricated and characterized. The maximum detectivity reached 5.5×108 cmHz1/2/W at a modulating frequency of 14 Hz. The effective majority carrier lifetime in AlxGa1−xN materials, derived from frequency-dependent photoconductivity measurements, has been estimated to be from 6 to 35 ms. The frequency-dependent noise spectrum shows that it is dominated by Johnson noise at high frequencies for low-Al-composition samples. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
