  • Abstract
    The authors have investigated the selective growth of GaAs/AlGaAs MQW PIN diodes by atmospheric pressure MOCVD. A patterned spin-on silica film was used to restrict single-crystal growth to the exposed areas of the substrate. It was found that high-quality material can be grown by selective area epitaxy although edge effects currently limit the device performance
