摘要
In this paper, we discuss polarized photomodulated reflectivity (PR) and photoluminescence (PL) studies of MOCVD grown InGaP2 epilayers lattice-matched to a GaAs substrate. These structures were grown on a (001) face with a misorientation of two degrees along [110]. The PR spectra of the ordered sample show a strong polarization dependence. For the electric field E parallel to <[(1)over bar 10]> two features in the PR spectra are seen; for E parallel to[110], however, additional features are observed. A comparison with the spectra of disordered samples of the same alloy composition has enabled a determination of the band gap reduction due to ordering. The linewidths of the PR peaks are approximately 5-10 meV which has enabled us to study them in detail as a function of hydrostatic pressure at cryogenic temperatures. The pressure dependence is slightly sublinear with the first order term of 8-9 meV kbar(-1) for pressures well below the Gamma-X crossover. Also observed is the indirect level crossing which occurs under pressure at about 40-kbar. An analysis of PR lineshapes at 1-bar is also presented at several commonly used experimental temperatures.
