Characterization of deep level traps responsible for isolation of proton implanted GaAs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Deep level transient spectroscopy was employed to determine the electrical properties of defects induced in metalorganic chemical-vapor deposition grown n-type and p-type GaAs during proton bombardment. Thermal stability of these defects was investigated and correlation with defects responsible for isolation of GaAs by ion bombardment was discussed. The annealing temperature region ~220–250 °C! is similar to proton isolated GaAs below the threshold dose for complete isolation. At least four of the five traps observed in n-type GaAs are not simple interstitial-vacancy pairs. For p-type GaAs we have observed an unknown level with apparent energy of ;0.64 eV. © 2003 American Institute of Physics. @DOI: 10.1063/1.1554761#

Electrical characterisation of deep level defects in Be-doped AlGaAs grown on (100) and (311)A GaAs substrates by MBE
The growth of high mobility two-dimensional hole gases (2DHGs) using GaAs-GaAlAs heterostructures has been the subject of many investigations. However, despite many efforts hole mobilities in Be-doped structures grown on (100) GaAs substrate remained considerably lower than those obtained by growing on (311)A oriented surface using silicon as p-type dopant. In this study we will report on the p...

192 LLE Review, Volume 95 An ion-implantation technique has been employed in the GaAs photodetector technology to obtain materials with a carrier lifetime in the picosecond and even subpicosecond regimes. Properties of proton,1 Ar+,2,3 As+,46 and other ion-implanted GaAs have been investigated thoroughly. Nitrogen-ionimplanted GaAs (N+-GaAs) is a relatively new member in the family of ion-imp...

We have studied electrically active defects in buried layers, produced by heavy ion implantation in silicon, using both conventional deep level transient spectroscopy ~DLTS! and an isothermal spectroscopic technique called time analyzed transient spectroscopy operated in constant capacitance mode ~CC-TATS!. We show that CC-TATS is a more reliable method than DLTS for characterization of the hea...
متن کاملTemperature dependence of ionization energies of deep bound states in semiconductors
2014 We explain that the temperature coefficient of the ionization energy of a deep level can be determined from measurements of carrier emission rate and capture rate, using transient capacitance techniques such as DLTS. Two electron traps and three hole traps in GaAs are examined as an illustration. One of the hole traps appears to be strongly pinned to the conduction band. LE JOURNAL DE PHYS...
