Tem Characterization of Dislocations in GaAs-ON-Si Heterostructures Wite Sjpereatlice Intermediate Iayers

Abstract
GaAs was grown on Si substrate by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition using GaAs/GaAsP strained layer superlattice (SLS) intermediate layers. The dislocation density decreases at the interface between GaAs and SLS, but does not decrease in the SLS. When GaAs/GaAsP SLS is used as the intermediate layer, a part of the dislocation propagates into the top GaAs layer because of the lattice mismatch of GaAs and SLS. The low etch-pit-density of (3-5) x 105 cm−2 was obtained by using the intermediate layer of GaAs/GaAsP SLS and AlAs/GaAs superlattice with thermal-cycle annealing.
