Abstract
The application of dark field transmission microscopy is reported for observing microdefects in III-V compound wafers. Using near infra-red imaging with a video camera, high contrast results are obtained of micro-precipitates of 1 μm and smaller in the subsurface and interior of wafers of indium-doped GaAs and an epitaxial layer of GaAs on GaAs
