Description

Effects of stoichiometry on various feature of III-V compounds are investigated. The application of the optimum vapour pressure of group V elements is shown to minimize the deviation from the stoichiometric composition. Temperature dependence of the optimum vapour pressure is also obtained from both the annealing and the liquid phase epitaxial (LPE) growth experiments. Vapour pressure technology is successfully applied to the bulk crystal growth. In view of the defect formation mechanism, role of stable interstitial As atoms (IAs) in GaAs is emphasized.
