Abstract :
Hole mobilities have been measured at temperatures from 77 to 300 K in a wide range of quaternary alloys grown lattice-matched to InP substrates by liquid-phase epitaxy. Over most of the composition range the hole mobility at room temperature is lower than in InP itself, and is dominated by alloy scattering.
