Popis: | III–V planar semiconductor heterostructures based on GaPN alloy with a nitrogen concentration up to 2.12% were grown on Si(001) by plasma assisted molecular beam epitaxy. Dependence of nitrogen incorporation on the growth conditions and its effect on the crystal structure were investigated via analysis of X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, and Raman spectroscopy data. Continuous redshift and a substantial increase in intensity of the photoluminescence emission spectra were observed upon increase of nitrogen content. The effect of antiphase disorder in GaP buffer on the GaPN epilayer properties was studied. It was found that antiphase boundaries, protruding from the GaP/Si to the GaPN/GaP heterointerface, change their orientation and self-annihilate in the dilute nitride layer even with a low (0.5%) nitrogen content. |
