Scanning tunneling microscopy of doping and composilionallll - V homo . . and heterostructures
Scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) was used to study the (110) cross~sectional surfaces of molecular-beam epitaxially grown III-Y homoand heterostructures, which include GaAs multiple p-n junctions, (InGa) As/GaAs strained-layer multiple quantum wens, and (AIGa)As/GaAs heterojunctions. Both doping and compositional effects can be resolved by the topographic contrasts of constant-current STM im...
متن کاملCharacterizing In and N impurities in GaAs from ab initio computer simulation of (110) cross-sectional STM images
Computer simulations of cross-sectional scanning-tunneling microscopy images of GaAs 110 are performed by means of density-functional theory, with the aim of characterizing InGa and NAs substitutional impurities. In some cases the comparison between an experimental image taken at a single negative bias with the results of our simulations is sufficient to discriminate among different types and l...
متن کاملCross-sectional imaging of sharp Si interlayers embedded in gallium arsenide
We investigate the electronic properties of the (110) cross-sectional surface of Si-doped GaAs using first-principles techniques. We focus on doping configurations with an equal concentration of Si impurities in cationic and anionic sites, such as occurring in a self-compensating doping regime. In particular we study a bilayer of Si atoms uniformly distributed over two consecutive (001) atomic ...
متن کاملQuasiparticle corrections to the electronic properties of anion vacancies at GaAs(110) and InP(110).
We propose a new method for calculating optical defect levels and thermodynamic charge-transition levels of point defects in semiconductors, which includes quasiparticle corrections to the Kohn-Sham eigenvalues of density-functional theory. Its applicability is demonstrated for anion vacancies at the (110) surfaces of III-V semiconductors. We find the (+/0) charge-transition level to be 0.49 eV...
متن کاملA transmission electron microscopy study of defects formed through the capping layer of self-assembled InAs/GaAs quantum dot samples
Plan-view and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy have been used for a detailed study of the defects formed in capped InAs/GaAs quantum dot QD samples. Three main types of defects, V-shaped defects, single stacking faults, and stacking fault pyramids, were found to form under growth conditions that led to either very large, indium enriched, or coalesced islands. All three types of ...
