Popis: | In-situ laser reflectometry was used at four different test wavelengths to monitor the thickness of GaAs/GaAlAs layers grown by metal organic vapor phase epitaxy. The studied wavelengths are 1.32 μm, 633 nm, 514 nm, and 442 nm. The effective optical indices have been calibrated at the growth temperature for different compositions of GaAlAs. According to these measured indices and under the requirements of an empirical thickness criterion, the range of in-situ thickness monitoring has been determined at the different wavelengths for each studied materials. Finally, as a demonstration, in-situ laser reflectometry has been successfully applied to the growth of some devices, showing a significative improvement of the reproducibility and the accurancy of the caracteristics of these devices. |
