Abstract

Spinodal decomposition range of InxGa1−xNyAs1−y quaternary alloys as the result of the strain and coherency strain energies, transformations of the bonds, and a lattice mismatch between the GaAs substrate and an alloy is described. The alloys are considered in the strictly regular approximation. The strain energy is presented in the valence-force field model. The spinodal decomposition temperatures of InxGa1−xNyAs1−y alloys are demonstrated up to 1000 °C. It is shown that nitrogen dramatically increases the temperature of the coherent spinodal.
