Abstract:

Selective area growth is used in the fabrication of Si epitaxial devices such as bipolar transistors. This growth technique facilitates the preparation of very complex self-aligned and buried transistor structures. Selective growth has been investigated in the III-V materials, without, however, any significant results pertaining to the optical or electrical quality of the material grown, or device results. In this work, we investigate selective growth of InP and GaInAs on S02-masked InP substrates using metalorganic molecular beam epitaxy MOMBE. Group Ill and V elements are derived from triethylgallium and trimethylindium, and AsH3 and PH3 respectively. Excellent selectivity is achieved in the temperature range from 5 10 to 540 deg C.
