ABSTRACTThe effects of Implantation Enhanced Interdiffusion (IEI) in GaAs-GaAlAs quantum well structures are investigated. A Focused Ion Beam (FIB) source is used to implant narrow lines (500Å wide) with Ga+ ions. IEI in these structures is characterized by low temperature Cathodoluminescence. The dose effects and annealing kinetics dependence on IEI are presented. An unusual damage distribution which produces IEI deep below the surface is observed for the case of FIB implant. The possible origins of this effect and the limits of IEI for processing quantum wires and boxes are discussed.

ABSTRACTOptical channel waveguiding in AlGaAs multiple quantum well structures formed by compositional mixing implemented by focused ion beam (FIB) implantation is demonstrated. To achieve selective mixing, Si is FIB implanted with a dose of 5×1014 cm−2 followed by RTA at 950°C for 10 s. Raman microprobe spectra are used to characterize the lateral variation of mixing. Propagation loss in a channel waveguide is measured. Measurement of the waveguide mode field distribution allows for the determination of changes in refractive index due to mixing and an approximate mixing depth.

ABSTRACTThe effects of Ar+ ion beam etching (IBE) of AlGaN/GaN heterostructures and GaN/InGaN/GaN quantum well structures were investigated dependent on different ion incidence angles. The AlGaN/GaN heterostructure was measured before and after etching with respect to mobility and sheet resistance. The InGaN quantum well structure was measured with PL to determine the PL intensity and the energy shift, respectively. This experiments show that ion channeling is a significant defect generation phenomena in group- III nitrides at vertical ion incidence angle and can be minimized by tilting the sample against the ion beam.
