Abstract :
We report the use of an As2(instead of As4) beam during molecular beam epitaxial (MBE) growth of GaxAlyIn1-x-yAs layers, lattice-matched to InP substrate. We also show that use of the As2beam improves the room-temperature photoluminescence intensities of both In0.53Ga0.47As and Ga0.39Al0.08In0.53As epilayers with more significant improvement for the latter. The substrate temperature employed was ∼ 580°C for both.
