摘要
Phase-separated In0.53Ga0.47As epitaxial layers were grown by liquid phase epitaxy on (001) InP substrates. To investigate the stability of the microstructure, two types of Zn addition experiments were carried out: Zn in-diffusion anneals, and growth of Zn-doped layers followed by annealing (pre-doping experiment). The in-diffusion anneal resulted in a homogeneous microstructure, indicating that the phase-separated microstructure is not the ground state in as-grown InGaAs layers. However, annealing of the pre-doped layer has little effect on the microstructure. Arguments have been developed to rationalize these observations.
