ABSTRACTLow pressure (200 Torr) metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) of InSb has been examined through variation of the Column III (TMIn) and Column V (TMSb or TESb) precursor partial pressures. The use of lower growth pressure significantly enhanced the range of allowable Column III and Column V partial pressures in which specular morphology InSb could be obtained without the formation of In droplets or Sb crystals. In addition, a 70% improvement in the average hole mobility was obtained, compared to InSb grown in the same reactor at atmospheric pressure. SIMS analysis revealed that Si at the substrate/epitaxial layer interface is an important impurity that may contribute to degradation of the mobility. Substitution of TESb for TMSb did not result in any improvement in the purity of the InSb.

Step-bunching and triangular defects are significant problems in achieving higher growth rate 4H-SiC epilayers in a horizontal hot wall CVD reactor using a standard non-chlorinated chemistry of silane-propane-hydrogen on 4°off-axis substrates. In this work, the impact of growth pressure on generation of step-bunching and triangular defects and the correlations between the surface roughness and the formation of defects were investigated. It has been found that the impact of growth pressure on concentration of the triangle defects and surface roughness is obviously different. An overall reduction of defects was observed with decreasing growth pressure while the surface roughness increased. The increased adatom surface mobility in low pressure range and minimization of surface free energy are the main reasons for the phenomenon above. High Resolution X-Ray Diffraction (HRXRD) indicated that the structural quality of 4H-SiC epilayers performed at low pressure was higher than that obtained at high pressure.

ABSTRACTThe use of trimethylamine alane (TMAAl) as an alternative to trimethylaluminum (TMAl) for low-pressure metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy (MOVPE) of AlGaAs thin films as well as complex optoelectronic device structures has been studied in detail. AlGaAs layers were grown in a horizontal reaction chamber at 20–110 mbar with growth temperatures in the range 650°C≤TG≤750°C. Wafer thickness uniformity is strongly dependent on growth pressure, and is acceptable only for the highest linear flow velocities. The 12K photoluminescence (PL) spectra of AlGaAs layers grown using TMAAl and TEGa exhibit uniformly intense and narrow bound-exciton emission throughout the growth temperature range investigated. To assess the viability of this new source for the low-pressure OMVPE growth of advanced optoelectronic devices, several optically-pumped vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL) structures were grown using TMAAl extensively. Room temperature lasing at 850 nm was reproducibly obtained from the VCSEL structures, with a threshold pumping power comparable to similar structures grown by molecular beam epitaxy in our laboratories.

The attack, on the surface of a polymer, by the atomic, molecular and ionic species that are created in a low pressure electrical discharge in a gas is interesting because: 1) significant interior morphological features may be revealed, 2) dielectric breakdown of polymeric insulation on high voltage power distribution lines involves the attack on the polymer of such species created in a corona discharge, 3) adhesive bonds formed between polymer surfaces subjected to such SDecies are much stronger than bonds between untreated surfaces, 4) the chemical modification of the surface creates a reactive surface to which a thin layer of another polymer may be bonded by glow discharge polymerization.

The field ion microscope, devised by Erwin Muller in the 1950's, was the first instrument to depict the structure of surfaces in atomic detail. An FIM image of a (111) plane of tungsten (Fig.l) is typical of what can be done by this microscope: for this small plane, every atom, at a separation of 4.48Å from its neighbors in the plane, is revealed. The image of the plane is highly enlarged, as it is projected on a phosphor screen with a radius of curvature more than a million times that of the sample. Müller achieved the resolution necessary to reveal individual atoms by imaging with ions, accommodated to the object at a low temperature. The ions are created at the sample surface by ionization of an inert image gas (usually helium), present at a low pressure (< 1 mTorr). at fields on the order of 4V/Å.
