GaAs and related III-V semiconductors are attractive materials for high-efficiency water-splitting photoelectrodes, but their implementation is limited in part by the high cost of metal-organic chemical vapor deposition, which employs toxic and pyrophoric gas-phase precursors. We report the study of GaAs and GaAsxP1-x grown by close-space vapor transport (CSVT), which uses solid GaAs as a source and water vapor as a transport agent as an alternative low-cost technique for depositing GaAs films and microstructures. The free carrier type and density (1016 – 1019 cm-3) in the films was adjusted by addition of Te or Zn powder to the GaAs source powder. The electronic properties of films grown under a variety of conditions are evaluated and correlated with the film structure and impurity content. We show using photoelectrochemical and electron beam-induced current analyses that the minority carrier diffusion lengths of the n- and p-GaAs epitaxial films reached 2-3 µm and 5-7 µm, respectively. Hall mobilities approach those achieved for GaAs grown by metal organic chemical vapor deposition, 500 - 4,000 cm2 V-1 s-1 for n-GaAs and 50-240 cm2 V-1 s-1 for p-GaAs depending on carrier concentration. Related efforts to control carrier collection through surface texture as well as the growth of GaAs on Si as an inexpensive high-efficiency tandem photoelectrode will also be discussed. Ritenour, A.
