摘要
InSb has been grown by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy using triisopropylantimony (TIPSb) and trimethylindium (TMIn) at temperatures as low as 300-degrees-C, the lowest yet reported for a stable Sb source. Unintentionally doped films were n type, and the best electronic transport result was obtained for a growth at 350-degrees-C yielding a 77 K carrier concentration of 3.7 X 10(16) cm-3 and mobility of 6.3 X 10(4) cm2/V s; these impurities are thought to be from the reagent grade chemicals used to synthesize the TIPSb. The morphology, growth rate, and transport properties of these films are reported as a function of growth temperature, molar ratios, and substrate (GaAs or InSb). By comparing these transport properties with Hall measurements of approximately 1-mu-m InSb epilayers on GaAs grown from trimethylantimony and TMIn, it was found that these properties were greatly improved because of the low-temperature epitaxy enabled by this source.
