Abstract

InGaAs was successfully grown on GaAs(100) substrate by chemical beam epitaxy (CBE) using triethylgallium (TEGa), trimethylindium (TMIn) and unprecracked monoethylarsine (MEAs) as a substitute for arsine. Indium composition of grown layers using unprecracked MEAs is found to be insensitive to the growth temperature of 410 to 590°C unlike that of metalorganic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE). Around 460°C, the type conversion of free carrier from n- to p-type was observed as the growth temperature was increased, presumably due to the different bonding energies between GaC and AsC. These results show that the use of unprecracked MEAs in the growth of InGaAs produces a wide growth window for indium composition and low impurity concentrations compared to the use of precracked arsine.
