Abstract
We report on liquid-phase epitaxial growth of thick layers of GaInP(As), la ttice matched to GaAs. Layers with thicknesses up to 10 mu m were prepared in a multi-melt bin, step-cooling, one-phase configuration. Unintentionally doped layers, grown from moderate purity starting materials, show a signif icant decrease in the residual impurity level when erbium is added to the m elt. Fundamental electrical and optical properties of the layers were inves tigated. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
