Abstract

Low energy (100 eV) impinging of carbon (C+) ions was made during molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of GaAs using combined ion beam and molecular beam epitaxy (CIBMBE) technologies for the growth temperature ( Tg ) between 500 °C and 590 °C. 2 K photoluminescence (PL), Raman scattering and Hall effect measurements were made for the samples. In the PL spectra two specific emissions, “g” and [g-g], were observed which are closely associated with acceptor impurities. PL and Hall effect measurements indicate that C atoms were very efficiently introduced during MBE growth by CIBMBE and were both optically and electrically well activated as acceptors even at Tg=500 °C. The results reveal that defect-free impurity doping without subsequent annealing can be achieved by CIBMBE method.
