摘要
Typically, II-VI heterostructures and devices are grown on commercially available III-V substrates. Often these substrates have strong absorption at the emission energy of the epitaxial layer, a problem when transmission measurements are required, as well as for some device applications. By removing the epilayers from the substrate the layer properties can be examined unhindered by the presence of the substrate. In this paper we present a selective etching technique for the removal of InGaAs/InP substrates from ZnMgCdSe-based epitaxial structures. Characterization of the materials after etching indicated the material is not damaged in the etching process. (C) 2012 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
