Abstract
Anion-based InAsP metamorphic step-graded buffers are a novel solution to the lattice-mismatch problem of devices with the lattice constant between InP and InAs grown on InP substrates. Compared to mixed-cation step-graded buffers, recent work shows InAsP step-graded buffers have achieved smoother surface morphology and lower threading dislocation density. The focus of this dissertation will be to investigate the fundamental growth science of InAsP metamorphic step-graded buffers using solid source molecular beam epitaxy. The structural and electronic properties of InAsP step-graded buffers will be explored by various characterization approaches, including high resolution X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, Hall measurements, etc. and compared to those of mixed-cation step-graded buffers. Based on the characterization results, the buffer design of InAsP step-graded buffers will be optimized, aiming to achieve high-quality material for device applications. This research is expected to provide a further understanding of the growth, material properties and device application of InAsP metamorphic step-graded buffers.
