    Notes: InGaAsP/InP single quantum wells grown by gas-source molecular-beam epitaxy have been characterized for their strain and thickness using degree of polarization (DOP) of the edge emission photoluminescence at room temperature. The DOP is a measure of the relative strengths of TE- and TM-polarized e–hh and e–lh transitions. The value of the DOP increases with a decrease in thickness of the well and as the strain varies from tension to compression. For example, we observe a variation of DOP from 20% to 79% when the strain varies from 1% tension to 1% compression for a 30 A(ring) layer and from 27% to 62% when the thickness of a lattice-matched well is varied from 100 to 30 A(ring). A simple theoretical model is used to predict this trend. We show that this technique provides a sensitive measure of the variations in the strain and thickness of quantum wells. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The thermal desorption of ultraviolet-ozone oxide on InP substrates prepared for molecular-beam epitaxy has been performed with overpressures of P2, As2, and As4. Surface analysis using reflection high-energy electron diffraction, Auger electron spectroscopy, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and thermodynamic calculations indicate that thermal desorption proceeds via a reaction between the oxide and atomic phosphorus from the substrate to produce volatile phosphorus oxides such as P2O3. The overpressure species serves to stabilize the substrate against surface dissociation once the oxide is removed. In the case of an arsenic overpressure the desorption of the final monolayer of oxide is slowed, relative to the case of phosphorus overpressure, due to the formation of InAs. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The incorporation of the group V components in In1−xGaxAsyP1−y, grown lattice matched to InP by gas source molecular beam epitaxy, has been studied over the entire alloy range, 0≤y≤1, as a function of the group V source composition, the V/III beam flux ratio, and the substrate surface orientation. Several aspects of the group V incorporation are most easily understood in terms of a simple model involving a constant incorporation coefficient and an As "underpressure'' condition. An improved description of the results at lower values of the V/III flux ratio is provided by a thermodynamic model based on equilibrium reactions for the formation of the binary constituents, and using the bulk properties of the solid solution. However, the thermodynamic model is quantitatively incorrect for large values of the V/III flux ratio. Furthermore, the results for different surface orientations reveal additional weaknesses in the thermodynamic model and suggest the need to account for the surface bonding configurations in describing the group V incorporation in epitaxial growth. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Misfit dislocations in the SiGe system are usually not dissociated. We present the first observation of a Lomer–Cottrell lock array in a Si/Si1−xGex/Si heterostructure (0.4〈x〈0.6). We describe the character of the stacking faults and the partial dislocations which form the locks.

    Notes: Room-temperature, polarization-resolved photoluminescence from a (001) surface has been used to investigate InP/InGaAs/InP quantum wells grown by gas source molecular beam epitaxy. The degree of polarization of photoluminescence from a (001) surface, DOP001, is a direct measure of the anisotropy of polarization of luminescence between [110] and [11¯ 0] directions. DOP001 is observed to be strongly dependent on the quantum well thickness, composition (strain), and the gas switching time at the growth-interrupted interface. Results show that the anisotropy of polarization may be due to an effect of an anisotropic strain field that is associated with strained bonds at the interfaces of the quantum well. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Strained-layer structures consisting of ∼30–35 nm Si1−xGex (x=0.16–0.29) and 33 nm Si deposited by molecular beam epitaxy on a (100)Si substrate have been amorphized by ion implantation at 40 K with 120 keV As+. Rutherford backscattering/channeling measurements using 2 MeV He+ ions have been used to measure the thickness of the amorphous layer and monitor the subsequent epitaxial regrowth occurring as a result of annealing at 560–600 °C. Angular scans across the {110} planar channels indicate that the initial crystallinity and strain was recovered for x=0.16; however, for x=0.29 crystal quality was greatly reduced and the coherency at the substrate-alloy layer interface was destroyed.

    Notes: Numerical simulations based on a valence force field model have been performed to explain experimental results on the degree of polarization of photoluminescence from the [001] direction of InP/InGaAs/InP quantum wells grown on (001) substrates by gas-source molecular beam epitaxy. The results of the simulations indicate an anisotropic strain field owing to fundamental, growth-related differences between the interfaces of the quantum well. The anisotropic strain field is associated with strained Ga–P, Ga–As, and In–As bonds at the InP/InGaAs/InP interfaces. The results of the simulations are in agreement with measurements of the degree of polarization of photoluminescence from the [001] direction of the quantum wells. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Planar {110} channeling measurements with 1–2-MeV He+ ions have been used to investigate strained-layer structures of (100) GaAs/InxGa1−xAs/GaAs with x=0.07–0.17. Beam-steering effects in the surface GaAs layer are observed to have a major influence on {110} planar angular scans carried out in the InxGa1−xAs layers resulting generally in a double or more complex-shaped angular dip. A simple computer simulation has been developed which determines the main features of the experimental angular scan data. Comparison of simulation and experimental data allows a reasonable determination of the kink angle θK between the {110} planes for the surface GaAs and underlying strained layer. Only in limiting cases is it possible to unequivocally determine θK from the experimental data alone. They are as follows: (i) when θK=0; (ii) θK〉2ψ pc (ψ pc is the critical angle for {110} planar channeling); and (iii) when the thickness t of the top layer is thin (t(very-much-less-than)2d/ψ pc, where d is the {110} interplanar spacing).

    Notes: The strain relaxation of InAsyP1−y layers grown on (001) InP substrates by gas-source molecular beam epitaxy was examined using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and cathodoluminescence (CL) imaging. InAsyP1−y films with a thickness of 190 A(ring) were prepared, systematically varying the As content from y=0.30 and 0.77, corresponding to a lattice mismatch between 0.97% and 2.5%. Relaxation was anisotropic, with 60° misfit dislocations lying predominantly along [11¯0], with a much lower density of dislocations along [110]. For y(approximately-greater-than)0.48, CL and plan-view TEM observations show slip traces which make angles of about ±40° with the [11¯0] direction. These slip traces correspond to pure-screw dislocation segments (gliding on {111}) cross slipping to glide on planes approximately parallel to {011}.
