Superdiffusion of Zn into GaAs in an array of GaAs/Zn/GaAs during electron irradiation at 50oC

  • 1. Nagoya Inst. of Tech. (Japan)

Description

Zinc atoms were introduced into undoped semi-insulating GaAs at 50oC by using the electron-beam doping (EBD) method. A Zn sheet was sandwiched between two wafers of GaAs, and the surface of GaAs was irradiated with 7 MeV electrons. Before annealing, photoluminescence with a broad peak at 1.48 eV was observed from the GaAs at 77 K, which indicates that the GaAs was not severely damaged. After annealing at 750oC, two strong emissions appeared which are attributed to a Zn acceptor transition, and the band-gap transition. (author) 13 refs., 3 figs
