Cj. Palmstrom et al., GROWTH OF HEAVY CARBON-DOPED GALNAS LATTICE-MATCHED TO INP BY CHEMICAL BEAM EPITAXY, Applied physics letters, 64(23), 1994, pp. 3139-3141
Successful growth of p- type (approximately 1 X 10(20) holes/cm-3) C-d
oped lattice matched GaInAs on InP(100) has been demonstrated using ch
emical beam epitaxy. Carbon tetrachloride was used as the C-dopant gas
and p-type GaInAs was grown by chemical beam epitaxy using trimethyli
ndium, triethylgallium and cracked arsine. Combinations of elemental a
nd organometallic group-III sources also resulted in p-type layers. Hi
gh performance C-doped base InP/InGaAs heterojunction bipolar transist
ors were fabricated using chemical beam epitaxy grown material.
