Abstract
A kinetic model has been developed to study the effect of nitrogen on indium segregation for GaInNAs/GaAs quantum wells. Our results suggest that nitrogen tends to enhance the indium-gallium exchange process. The incorporation of nitrogen is found to increases the segregation length up to a maximum value, which decreases with further increase in nitrogen concentration.
