Cw. Tu et al., HEAVILY CARBON-DOPED P-TYPE GAAS AND IN0.53GA0.47AS GROWN BY GAS-SOURCE MOLECULAR-BEAM EPITAXY USING CARBON TETRABROMIDE, Journal of crystal growth, 136(1-4), 1994, pp. 191-194
Highly p-type carbon-doped GaAs and In0.53Ga0.47As grown by gas-source
molecular beam epitaxy were obtained by using carbon tetrabromide as
the carbon source. In the low 10(19) CM-3 range almost all carbon atom
s are electrically active in GaAs, and at least 85 % of the carbon ato
ms are activated at a concentration as high as 1.2 X 10(20) cm-3. A ho
le concentration of 9 X 10(19) cm-3 in In0.53Ga0.47As, among the highe
st reported to date, was achieved. No hydrogenation problem was observ
ed.
