Arsenic precipitates and the semi‐insulating properties of GaAs buffer layers grown by low‐temperature molecular beam epitaxy

TL;DR: Arsenic precipitates have been observed in GaAs low-temperature buffer layers (LTBLs) used as "substrates" for normal molecular beam epitaxy growth as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Schottky barriers: An effective work function model

TL;DR: In this paper, a new model of Fermi-level pinning at the interfaces of compound semiconductor substrates and metallic or oxide overlayers was proposed, which assumes the standard Schottky picture of interface band alignment, but the interface phases involved are not the pure metal or oxide normally assumed by other models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Formation of arsenic precipitates in GaAs buffer layers grown by molecular beam epitaxy at low substrate temperatures

TL;DR: In this paper, a GaAs buffer layer was grown at low substrate temperatures (250 °C) and the film structures were examined using transmission electron microscopy, showing that the GaAs layer was free of defects or clusters.
Journal ArticleDOI

Ohmic contacts to n‐GaAs using graded band gap layers of Ga1−xInxAs grown by molecular beam epitaxy

TL;DR: In this paper, an epitaxial layer of n−Ga1−xInxAs grown by molecular beam epitaxy on n•GaAs which is graded in composition from x = 0 at the GaAs interface to 0.8?x?1.0 at the surface will produce a structure with a nearly zero Schottky barrier height for the metal-Ga 1−xAs interface and hence a low resistance ohmic contact.
