Abstract

We have investigated the effect of growth temperature and V/III ratio on dopant incorporation from disilane (Si2H6) and tetraethyltin (TESn) over the temperature range 475°C-525°C during growth of GaAs by metal organic molecular beam epitaxy (MOMBE). Increasing V/III ratio produced only a slight decrease in the dopant concentration while increasing growth temperature resulted in slighdy higher dopant levels. Addition of Al and H to the growth surface via introduction of trimethylamine alane had no apparent effect on dopant incorporation. No significant differences were observed in the incorporation behaviors of Si2H6 and TESn, and both sources yielded comparable base-collector junction behavior when used for growth of heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs).
