摘要
High quality zinc-blende BxGa1-xAsxBx Al1-x-yInyAs and relevant MQW structures containing 10-period B-GAs/GaAs and BGalnAs/GaAs have been successfully grown oil exactly-oriented (0 0 1)GaAs substrates by low pressure metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (LP-MOCVD). Triethylboron, trimethylgallium, trimiethylaluminum, trimethylindium and arsine were used as the precursors. Boron incorporation behaviors have been studied as a function of growth temperature and gas-phase boron mole fraction. In this study, the maximum boron composition (x) of 5.8% ad 1.3% was achieved at the same growth temperature of 580 C for bulk BxGa1-xAs and BxAl1-xAs, respectively. 11 K phOtOlUminescence (PL) peak wavelength of lattice-matched B(x)Ga(1-x)ln(y)As epilayer with boron composition of about 4% reached 1.24 mu m.
