Abstract
In this study we used transmission electron microscopy (TEM) to assess the origin of the electrical behaviour of two dimensional electron ga s (2DEG) in high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs) based upon InAl As/InGaAs heterostructures grown on InP substrates, as a function of t he growth temperature (T-g) of the InxGa1-xAs well. The highest mobili ty for a matched channel was obtained for an In0.53Ga0.47As layer grow n at 530 degrees C. Lower temperatures reduced the mobility values and led to higher mobilities for [1(1) over bar0$] due to the surface cor rugation along [110], induced by lateral decomposition of the InGaAs a t low growth temperatures.
