    Notes: Quantum dots (QDs) formed on GaAs(100) substrates by InAs deposition followed by (Al,Ga)As or (In,Ga,Al)As overgrowth demonstrate a photoluminescence (PL) peak that is redshifted (up to 1.3 μm) compared to PL emission of GaAs-covered QDs. The result is attributed to redistribution of InAs molecules in the system in favor of the QDs, stimulated by Al atoms in the cap layer. The deposition of a 1 nm thick AlAs cover layer on top of the InAs–GaAs QDs results in replacement of InAs molecules of the wetting layer by AlAs molecules, leading to a significant increase in the heights of the InAs QDs, as follows from transmission electron microscopy. This effect is directly confirmed by transmission electron microscopy indicating a transition to a Volmer–Weber-like QD arrangement. We demonstrate an injection laser based on this kind of QDs. © 2000 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: As–Sb compositional intermixing was studied by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) in GaAs films grown by molecular-beam epitaxy at low temperature (LT) and δ doped with antimony. The TEM technique was calibrated by imaging the as-grown films with δ layers containing various amounts of Sb. The calibration allowed us to deduce the effective As–Sb interdiffusion coefficient from apparent thickness of the Sb δ layers in the films subjected to isochronal anneals at 400–600 °C. The As–Sb intermixing in LT GaAs was found to be much enhanced when compared to conventional material. Its temperature dependence yields a diffusion coefficient of DAs–Sb=2×10−14 exp(−0.62±0.15 eV/kt) cm2 s−1. Since the kick-out mechanism operating under equilibrium conditions is valid for As–Sb interdiffusion in GaAs, the enhanced intermixing was attributed to an oversaturation of arsenic self-interstitials in the LT GaAs films. The effective activation energy for As–Sb interdiffusion in LT GaAs seems to be reasonably close to the migration enthalpy of As interstitials, whereas their concentration was roughly estimated as 1018 cm−3. © 2001 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We report surface-mode lasing in a structure with 12-fold stacked InGaN insertions in a GaN matrix without using of Bragg mirrors. At high excitation densities, one of the modes of the Fabry–Perot cavity formed by the GaN sapphire and the GaN air interfaces, shows a strong superlinear increase in intensity with excitation density rise. The possibility to reach surface lasing in a very low finesse microcavity is due to the ultrahigh material gain of the InGaN insertions. The strong modulation of the absorption-gain spectrum with increase in the excitation density results in a pronounced energy shift of the cavity modes. We found that the threshold excitation density is weakly affected by temperature up to 110 K, while increases at higher temperatures. This behavior is attributed to thermal evaporation of carriers from InN-rich nanodomains and is typical for quantum dot lasers. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The influence of different growth conditions on the In distribution in ultrathin InGaN insertions in a GaN matrix is investigated by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and an appropriate image evaluation technique. It is demonstrated that the indium distribution represents dense arrays of In-rich nanodomains inserted in a layer with a lower indium concentration. The sizes of the In-rich regions are about 4–5 nm at a growth temperature of 720 °C. Increasing the growth temperature leads to a strong decrease in the of nanoisland density and, also, a moderate decrease in their lateral size. Increasing the trimethylindium/trimethylgallium ratio strongly increases the density of the islands, but the lateral size remains weakly effected. The observations are in agreement with a thermodynamic model of island formation including entropy effects. © 2002 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Low-temperature grown GaAs films with indium delta layers are studied by transmission electron microscopy. The delta layers in the as-grown film are found to be as thick as four monolayers (ML) independently of a nominal In deposit of 0.5 or 1 ML, a thickness which reflects the film surface roughness during the low-temperature growth. A pronounced In–Ga intermixing is observed in the films subjected to 500–700 °C isochronal anneals. The In–Ga interdiffusion diffusivity is evaluated. The effective activation energy for In–Ga interdiffusion is found to be 1.1±0.3 eV which is significantly smaller than a value of 1.93 eV for a stoichiometric GaAs. The difference seems to result from a loss of the gallium vacancy supersaturation upon annealing, and is consistent with an annihilation enthalpy of 0.8 eV. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: InAs self-organized quantum dots inserted in InGaAs quantum well have been grown on GaAs substrates by molecular beam epitaxy. The lateral size of the InAs islands has been found to be approximately 1.5 times larger as compared to the InAs/GaAs case, whereas the island heights and surface densities were close in both cases. The quantum dot emission wavelength can be controllably changed from 1.1 to 1.3 μm by varying the composition of the InGaAs quantum well matrix. Photoluminescence at 1.33 μm from vertical optical microcavities containing the InAs/InGaAs quantum dot array was demonstrated. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: We have found that isovalent indium doping enhances arsenic excess in GaAs films grown by molecular beam epitaxy at low temperature. An increase in lattice expansion and near infrared optical absorption, as well as higher density of As clusters, have been observed in the indium-doped films when compared to the conventional indium-free ones. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.
