摘要
New III-V compound semiconductors TlxIn1-x-yGayP (thallium indium gallium phosphide), which we proposed recently for 0.9 mu m to over 10 mu m laser diodes, are grown by gas source molecular beam epitaxy on InP and GaAs substrates for the first time. They have a potential to exhibit a temperature-independent band-gap energy. Grown layers exhibit (2 x 4) surface reconstruction. X-ray diffraction measurements show the successful growth of TlInP, T/GaP and TlInGaP, although phase separation is observed in TlGaP grown on GaAs. Photoluminescence emission is observed for TlInP and TlInGaP grown on InP. Hall measurements show n-type conduction with a room temperature electron concentration of 6.3 x 10(15) cm(-3) and an electron mobility of 2500 cm(2)/V . s.
