Abstract :
The chloride vapor phase epitaxial (VPE) growth of semi-insulating (SI)InP (Fe) using N2+H2 as a carrier gas is reported for the first time. Iron doping is achieved by using FeCl2 generated by reaction of HCl and Fe. The transport of iron as FeCl2 is greatly improved by the use of N2. A proper N2/H2 ratio for the iron incorporation is discussed and a high valve of 5×108 Ωcm is obtained. Specifically, the technique has been successfully applied to the preparation of multi-quantum-well (MQW) laser diodes
