采用固态磷源分子束外延技术在InP(100)衬底上生长了高质量的InP外延材料.实验结果表明InP/InP外延材料的电学性质与诸多生长参数密切相关.根据霍耳测量结果,对生长条件和实验参数进行了优化,在生长温度为370℃,磷裂解温度为850℃,生长速率为0.791)μm/h和束流比为2.5的条件下,获得了厚度为2.35μm的InP/InP外延材料.在77K温度下,电子浓度为1.55×10^-15cm^-3,电子迁移率达到4.57×10^4cm^2/(V·s).
The molecular beam epitaxial growth of high quality epilayers on (100) InP substrate using a valve phosphorous cracker cell over a wide range of P/In BEP ratio (2.0-7.0) and growth rate (0.437 and 0. 791μm/h). Experimental results show that electrical properties exhibit a pronounced dependence on growth parameters,which are growth rate, P/In BEP ratio, cracker zone temperature, and growth temperature. The parameters have been optimized carefully via the results of Hall measurements. For a typical sample, 77K electron mobility of 4.57 × 10^4 cm^2/(V · s) and electron concentration of 1.55×10^15 cm^-3 have been achieved with an epilayer thickness of 2.35μm at a growth temperature of 370℃ by using a cracking zone temperature of 850℃.
