    摘要: When growing GaAs by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), a typical related reaction acts to affix Ga.sub.2 O.sub.3 to the growth surface and hence incorporates such oxide contaminants in the epitaxial layer as it is grown. Such contaminants may yield crystals of poor electrical and optical properties. When Al is added to the Ga source crucible, the Ga.sub.2 O flux is reduced substantially thereby suppressing the formation of such oxide contaminants and remove a serious constraint to MBE growth. When doping GaAs with Mg to form a p-type GaAs layer, unity Mg doping efficiency is achieved by including 0.1% Al in the Ga effusion cell. Such an inclusion of Al improves the Mg doping efficiency by suppressing the formation of MgO, and allows MBE growth at lower substrate temperatures and at higher growth rates.

    摘要: Control of the Fermi level pinning problem and the production of flat band surface performance in compound semiconductors is achieved by providing a cationic oxide free of anionic species on the surface of the semiconductor for flat band performance and with a localized inclusion of some anionic species for barrier performance so that oxide and metal work function responsiveness is available in structure and performance in MOSFET, MESFET and different work function metal FET structures. A cationic gallium oxide is produced on GaAs by oxide growth during illumination and while being rinsed with oxygenated water. The oxidation is used to produce both anionic and cationic species while the rinsing process selectively removes all the anionic species.

    摘要: A semiconductor photodetector is formed of interdigitated, metal-semiconductor-metal electrodes disposed on a surface of semi-insulating semiconductor material, gallium arsenide. Radiation such as infra-red or visible light is converted to an electric current flowing between the electrodes upon application of a bias voltage between the electrodes. A Schottky barrier at the junction of each electrode surface and the semiconductor surface limits current flow to that produced by photons. Tunneling of charge carriers of the current under the Schottky barrier, which tunneling results from the entrapment of charge carriers on the semiconductor surface, is inhibited by the production of a heterojunction surface layer upon the foregoing surface between the electrodes to repulse the charge carriers and prevent their entrapment at the surface. The heterojunction layer may be doped to enhance the repulsion of charge carriers. The heterojunction surface layer is of sufficient thickness to prevent tunneling of photogenerated carriers to a noncontacted region of the surface of the heterojunction layer and to also permit efficient repulsion of charge carriers from the surface. Longer wavelength photodetectors may also be formed in this way by providing misfit dislocation regions between the interaction region, which may be GaInAs, and a GaAs substrate, thereby providing a pseudo-morphic interaction region which is graded back to a heterojunction layer at the surface.
