摘要
We have observed that the bandgap of lattice-matched GaInNAs-on-GaAs epilayers, grown by molecular beam epitaxy under constant fluxes, noticeably increases as growth temperature increases within the 410-470 degrees C range. The increase in the band gap with increasing growth temperature has been found to be due to a decrease in the substitutional nitrogen content as well as to an enhancement in the amount of N-Ga3In clusters relative to the N-Ga-4 ones.
