    Notes: Diamond films, produced by microwave plasma assisted chemical vapor deposition, were studied using cathodoluminescence (CL) scanning electron microscopy and spectroscopy techniques. Luminescence intensities of the observed prominent peaks at 420, 445, and 738 nm were found to vary widely as a function of both the deposition conditions and the location in the same sample. Additional peaks and shoulders at 464, 483, 500, 514, and 532 nm were also observed in some regions of diamond films deposited using the higher (i.e., 1%) CH4/H2 concentration and the substrate temperatures below 950 °C. Strong variations in CL intensities in different regions of the same sample were observed, indicating substantial variations in the distribution of defects and impurities in these diamond films. Luminescence due to the boron in a doped sample was also observed, and it was concluded that the higher CL intensity in that sample compared to other samples was due to the reduced defect densities and not due to the boron.

    Notes: Cathodoluminescence scanning electron microscopy studies reveal significant variations in stress across etched patterns of GaAs grown on both InP and Si substrates. The stress in the epilayer is relieved at convex corners and in patterned areas with dimensions on the order of 10 μm. The stress is uniaxial near the edge of a patterned region and changes to biaxial away from the edge, producing nonuniformities in the optical properties of patterned regions.

    Notes: Cathodoluminescence scanning electron microscopy is utilized to investigate the stresses present underneath 0.4 μm gold layers deposited on GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum well structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs substrates. Using the known stress dependence of excitonic lines in quantum wells, the magnitude of stress is determined to be about 1 kbar. The stress-induced change in the refractive index, attributed to photoelastic effect, is about 0.01 for the structures studied in the present work.

    Notes: Transistor action has been observed for the first time in a Si-TaSi2 eutectic composite. These devices, utilizing the in situ cylindrical Schottky junctions between the Si matrix and the TaSi2 rod phase, have characteristics typical of a metal-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MESFET). However, unlike a conventional planar device like a MESFET, eutectic transistors are resistant to avalanche breakdown. A device is demonstrated that blocks 600 V, a value that is three times larger than would be expected for a planar device of the same carrier concentration.

    Notes: Luminescence studies of thick (≥5 μm) GaAs epitaxial layers grown on Si substrates reveal regions of nonuniform stress associated with the presence of microcracks. Using cathodoluminescence spectroscopy as a tool for microcharacterization, the magnitude of the stress, derived from the peak positions of the luminescence spectra, is shown to increase gradually as a function of distance from the intersection of two microcracks. The greatest degree of stress relief was found at this intersection.

    Notes: A high quantum efficiency photodiode has been fabricated using the in situ junctions in a Si-TaSi2 eutectic composite. Due to the three-dimensional distribution of junctions in this photodiode, it yields a nearly constant quantum efficiency of about 50% between 450 and 1000 nm. In addition, the average lateral distance between junctions of only 8 μm gives this novel photodiode an inherently good spatial resolution for photodiode array applications.

    Notes: Depletion zones surrounding aligned, cylindrical, metal-semiconductor junctions formed during the directional solidification of a eutectic mixture are shown to influence the transport properties of the composite. Hall-effect and direct depletion zone width measurements made using the electron beam induced current technique of the scanning electron microscope have demonstrated that a relatively small total volume fraction (∼10%) of depleted material can lead to a significant increase in resistivity. The sensitivity of the resistivity of the composite to the depleted zone volume is attributed to a cellular distribution of the TaSi2 rods which causes substantial current streamlining. An analysis of the dopant segregation that occurs in the Si matrix of the composite boule during solidification supports the depletion zone limited transport model. The dependence of the resistivity on the depleted zone volume fraction of the composite indicates that the switching action in this novel material is achievable by increasing the volume fraction of depleted material between a source and drain contact.

    Notes: Epitaxial InAs/GaAs, GaAs/Ge/Si, GaAs/InP, and InAs/InP heterostructures are grown by molecular-beam epitaxy. Transmission electron microscopy studies reveal that, for these heteroepitaxial systems, the threading dislocation density is inversely proportional to the epilayer thickness. At a given thickness, the threading dislocation density is relatively insensitive to lattice mismatch (3.2%〈||Δa||/a〈7.2%), to differences in thermal expansion coefficients (6.9×10−7〈||Δα||〈3.4×10−6 K−1), to interfacial surface chemistry, and to epilayer morphology. Epitaxial layers incorporating growth interrupts produce lower overall defect densities, yet they maintain defect-reduction profiles similar to those observed in layers without the growth interrupt.

    Notes: This paper reviews applications of cathodoluminescence scanning electron microscopy in the assessment of optical and electronic properties of semiconductors. The assessment includes, for example, information on band structure and impurity levels derived from spectroscopic cathodoluminescence, analysis of dopant concentrations at a level which is in some cases several orders of magnitude better than x-ray microanalysis, and mapping of carrier lifetimes and defects. Recent advances in both the various cathodoluminescence techniques and the processes leading to electron-beam-induced luminescence in semiconductors are reviewed. Possible future trends are also discussed.
