Popis: The MOCVD growth of B-As and B-P films on Si, sapphire, and Si-on-sapphire substrates is described; in this process, trimethylborane (TMB) or triethylborane (TEB) is pyrolyzed in the presence of AsH3 or PH3 in an H2 atmosphere. The procedures employed are outlined, and the results are presented in graphs, tables, and micrographs. It is found that the growth rate of the primarily amorphous films is dependent on the TMB or TEB concentration but approximately constant for TEB and AsH3 at 550-900 C. The nominal compositions of films grown using TMB are given as B(12-16)As2 and B(1-1.3)P. Carbon impurities and significant stress, bowing, and crazing are observed in the films grown on Si substrates, with the highest carbon content in the films grown from TMB and PH3.
