X-ray Sensors Based on Chromium Compensated Gallium Arsenide (HR GaAs:Cr)

AbstractX-ray diffraction was used in situ to study the phase transitions which occurred in 1500 Å Au/GaAs(100) upon heating and cooling. The reaction between Au and GaAs took the form Au + Ga → α Au-Ga. Upon heating, α Au-Ga completely dissolved in liquid Au-Ga. Upon subsequent cooling, β Au-Ga (or Au7Ga2) formed. In 1 atm of nitrogen, phase transitions were observed reversibly at 525 ± 25°C (due to the complete dissolution of α Au-Ga upon heating) and 415 ± 5°C (due to the peritectic transformation of β Au-Ga to α Au-Ga and liquid Au-Ga upon heating). In a vacuum of 425 μ (0.031 Kg/2m) similar phase transitions were observed at 425 ± 25°C and 387 ± 13°C, respectively.

AbstractDislocations in GaAs are analysed by X-ray topography in order to relate their nature to their efficiency in generating growth steps. The analysis is mainly based on comparing double crystal back reflection images of the defects to calculated misorientations of the crystal surface which are caused at the outcrop. All types of dislocations are equally effective provided their Burgers vector has a component normal to the growth interface. Concentric growth step patterns, which develop in varying numbers on different samples are not caused by substrate dislocations.

Good Agreement

ABSTRACTSynchrotron x-ray topographs of GaAs epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELO) samples are made both in transmission and reflection geometries. The topographs show that the bending of the ELO layers is visible in most geometries. A simulation of the topographic images is implemented taking into account only the orientational contrast. Simulated back reflection section topographs are in good agreement with the experimental ones. The shape of the lattice planes in an ELO layer is calculated using the simulation data and compared to the measured surface profile of the same ELO stripe.
