Abstract
The lattice damage accumulation in GaAs and Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs superlat tices by 1 MeV Si+ irradiation at room temperature and 350-degrees-C h as been studied. For irradiations at 350-degrees-C, at lower doses the samples were almost defect-free after irradiation, while a large dens ity of accumulated defects was induced at a higher dose. The critical dose above which the damage accumulation is more efficient is estimate d to be 2 x 10(15) Si/cm2 for GaAs, and is 5 x 10(15) Si/cm2 for Al0.8 Ga0.7As/GaAs superlattice for implantation with 1.0 MeV Si ions at 350 -degrees-C. The damage accumulation rate for 1 MeV Si ion implantation in Al0.3Ga0.7As/GaAs superlattice is less than that in GaAs.
