R. Pal et al., LATTICE MISMATCH AND SURFACE-MORPHOLOGY STUDIES OF INXGA1-XAS EPILAYERS GROWN ON GAAS SUBSTRATES, Bulletin of Materials Science, 21(4), 1998, pp. 313-316
InxGa1-xAs (0.06 less than or equal to x less than or equal to 0.35) e
pilayers were grown on GaAs substrates by atmospheric pressure metal o
rganic chemical vapour deposition technique. Surface morphology and la
ttice mismatch in the InGaAs/GaAs films of different compositions were
studied. Cross-hatched patterns were observed on the surface of the e
pilayers for bulk alloy composition up to x approximate to 0.25. For x
> 0.3, a rough textured surface morphology was observed.
