Notes:
Fe and Cr doping of liquid-phase epitaxial In0.53Ga0.47As grown at 650 °C on InP substrates have been investigated. Varying amounts of high-purity Fe and Cr have been added to the growth melt. The resistivity of Fe-doped layers increases with increase of Fe added to the melt, and layers with ND−NA as low as 2.0×1012 cm−3 can be grown consistently. From analysis of temperature-dependent Hall data on conducting Fe-doped samples, the Fe acceptor ionization energy is found to be 0.46 eV. No additional feature is seen in the 4 K band-edge photoluminescence spectra of Fe-doped layers. Cr doping seems to produce donorlike behavior and the electron concentration increases monotonically with increased addition of Cr to the melt. An additional peak, separated from the band-gap energy by 24 meV is seen in the photoluminescence spectra of Cr-doped samples. It is believed that Cr itself, or a complex defect involving Cr is responsible for the formation of a donorlike center.
