Abstract
AbstractAlSb and AlAsxSb1−x epitaxial films grown by metal-organic chemical vapor deposition were successfully doped p- or n-type using diethylzinc or tetraethyltin, respectively. AlSb films were grown at 500°C and 76 torr using trimethylamine or ethyldimethylamine alane and triethylantimony. We examined the growth of AlAsSb using temperatures of 500 to 600 ° C, pressures of 65 to 630 torr, V/Ill ratios of 1–17, and growth rates of 0.3 to 2.7 μm/hour in a horizontal quartz reactor. SIMS showed C and 0 levels below 2 × 1018 cm−3 and 6×1018 cm−3 respectively for undoped AlSb. Similar levels of O were found in AlAs0.16Sb0.84 films but C levels were an order of magnitude less in undoped and Sn-doped AlAs0.16 Sb0.84 films. Hall measurements of AlAs0.16Sb0.84 showed hole concentrations between l×1017 cm−3 to 5×1018 cm−3 for Zn-doped material and electron concentrations in the low to mid 1018 cm−3 for Sndoped material. We have grown pseudomorphic InAs/InAsSb quantum well active regions on AlAsSb cladding layers. Photoluminescence of these layers has been observed up to 300 K.
