Description

A study of indium transients in the growth of InGaAs-AlGaAs and InGaAs-GaAs heterostructures is described for samples grown by atmospheric-pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) using trimethylindium (TMIn) and an interrupted growth process. No evidence of large compositional transients and rapid decays in the indium signal are observed in analysis of secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) and sputtered neutral mass spectrometry (SNMS) data taken at the interfaces of both InGaAs-GaAs strained-layer superlattice structures and InGaAs-AlGaAs laser structures. 24 refs
