  • Abstract
    We have successfully grown GaAsN and InGaAsN layers on GaAs substrate using atmospheric pressure MOVPE. Dimethylhydrazine and tertiarybutylarsine have been employed as sources of nitrogen and arsenic respectively. To investigate the incorporation behaviour of nitrogen in GaAsN and InGaAsN layers as function of ambient gas in the reactor, the growth was performed under H2 and N2 gases. Good structural quality and surface morphology have been obtained with both gases. Furthermore, with N2 ambient gas an enhancement of indium and nitrogen incorporation have been observed. The nonradiative carrier lifetime is about 25 ns independent of ambient gas. This value is good enough for laser applications
