Abstract

GaAsN epilayers and quantum wells with a good structural quality and surface morphology were grown by low pressure metal organic vapor phase epitaxy using tertiarybutylhydrazine as a novel nitrogen source. The dependence of nitrogen incorporation on growth temperature was studied for epitaxy with arsine and tertiarybutylarsine precursors. A nitrogen content of 6.7 % was achieved using tertiarybutylhydrazine and tertiarybutylarsine at a low growth temperature of 530 °C. The observed room temperature luminescence shows an increasing redshift with increasing nitrogen contents of the wells.
