Abstract :
Codoping of InP:Fe with Ti was found to inhibit the pronounced interdiffusion of Fe and p-type dopants. Because of the high thermal stability and the simultaneous properties for excess shallow donors and excess shallow acceptors codoped InP:Fe+Ti remains semi-insulating in contact with symmetric n- and p-type current injecting contacts. In contrast to InP:Fe epitaxial layers, resistivities in excess of 107 Ωcm were obtained in both configurations. Details of the epitaxial growth procedure and of the electrical characteristics of InP:Fe+Ti are presented. The interdiffusion behavior of Fe and p-type dopants as well as its suppression by additional doping with Ti are explained by a comprehensive model
