Abstract

The temperature dependence of the band gap in InAsyP1−y (y=0–0.67) has been determined by photoluminescence, x-ray diffraction, and absorption spectra measurements. We found that the measured data within the temperature range of 77–300 K can be expressed by the equation proposed by O’Donnell and Chen. The band gap at 77 K is given by Eg=1.407−1.073y+0.089y2, while the compositional dependence of the band gap observed at 300 K, agrees with the values previously reported. We confirmed that changes in temperature caused a slight change in the bowing parameters, and hence found that the band gap temperature dependence of InAsyP1−y (y=0–1) varies very little with changes in composition (2.5–3.5×10−4 eV/K).
