Abstract

We have studied, using DLTS, the EL-2 concentration in unintentionally doped OMVPE n-GaAs as a function of growth conditions such as partial pressure of Arsine, Trimethylgallium and growth temperature. The partial pressure dependencies are used to develop a model for the formation of EL-2 in the OMVPE process. The EL-2 concentration also shows a near inverse dependence on growth temperature.
