摘要
Interface bond structures of InAs/AlSb superlattices (SLs) have been investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and photoluminescence (PL) measurements. For heterointerfaces with different anion composition AsxSb1-x, XRD data are found to be in good agreement with simulation results assuming the presence of 1 monolayer InAsxSb1-x at the interfaces. For the sample with an AlAs interface bond, no good fit is obtained for XRD. This indicates that the growth of an InAs/AlSb SL is disrupted at the AlAs interfaces. Correlation between interface configurations and their optical properties is also discussed. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.
