The effect of heating on InGaAs/InP(1 0 0) and InPO4/InP(1 0 0)

Description

We have used Auger and electron energy loss spectroscopy to study the effect of temperature on InGaAs and InPO4 grown on InP. The thickness of InPO4 is of about 10 A whereas that of InGaAs is of about 800 A. InPO4 is of great interest because it protects InP from loss of stoichiometry when heated to 450 deg. C. The InGaAs system heated at 450 deg. C seems to be unstable; metallic indium appears on the surface in conjunction with formation of GaAs
