Abstract

Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) has been used to grow high-purity InP layers using solid sources and a graphite cracking zone to generate P2. Close control of slice temperature was achieved by mounting the substrate on a 3 in (75.6 mm) silicon wafer with indium solder. In addition, two differently packed phosphorus sources were investigated to assess the effect of oxides/water on InP purity. Several InP layers with a 77 K mobility of ~50000 cm2V¿1s¿1 were grown using a phosphorus source vacuum-packed at manufacture.
