Abstract
Very high p-type doping is achieved in Gap and InxGa1-xP with Be in so lid source molecular beam epitaxy equipped with a valved phosphorus cr acker. Dependence of hole concentration on the growth temperature and on the Be flux during growth is studied for Gap The hole concentration peaks at 3 x 10(19) cm(-3) for normal temperature (600 degrees C) gro wth. It is slightly higher at a lower growth temperature of 400 degree s C for the same Be flux. A higher hole concentration (5 x 10(19) cm(- 3)) is obtained by giving a high temperature rapid thermal anneal to t his sample. A hole concentration of 2 x 10(19) cm(-3) is achieved in I n0.49Ga0.51P by using a lower temperature growth (350 degrees C). To o ur knowledge, this is the highest reported hole concentration for any p-type dopant in In0.49Ga0.51P. (C) 1996 American Vacuum Society.
