Abstract

A study of the sources and control of residual impurities in GaAs grown by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) is presented. The effects of source purity, growth temperature, and reactor pressure upon residual impurities incorporation are detailed. Far infrared photoconductivity and photoluminescence indicate that C, Si and Zn are the dominant residual impurities in undoped material. It is demonstrated that GaAs with total impurity concentrations as low as 5 × 10 14 cm -3, μ(77 K) = 125,000 cm 2/V · s, can be grown by MOCVD. The conditions for growing such material are detailed.
