Abstract
A solid phase regrowth method is used to investigate the compositional disordering of Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs superlattices grown by molecular bea m epitaxy. All of the metal-evaporated and annealed samples exhibit di sordering, and the magnitude of the disordering for a Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaA s superlattice increases as the number of interfaces increases. The re sults of the secondary ion mass spectroscopy show clearly an interdiff usion of the AlGaAs and GaAs layers, and a compositional disordering m echanism in Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs superlattices is presented.
