Abstract
InP substrate orientation (100), (110)A, (110)B, (I I I)A, (111)B, (112)A a nd (112)B significantly affects phase decomposition and ordering. Through T EM, AFM and photoreflectance investigations, the effect of MBE growth on th e above surfaces has been determined. Features related to phase decompositi on due to (110)A, (111)B and (112)B surfaces have been identified. Anisotro py in optical transitions in samples grown on (110)A and (110)B InP has bee n identified through photoreflectance investigations. (C) 2001 Elsevier Sci ence B.V. All rights reserved.
