Popis: Multiple wafer growth of infrared III-V semiconductor materials of InSb and InGaAsP have been produced by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition technology employing a vertical reactor growth configuration with a high speed rotating disk. Three measurement techniques of sheet resistivity, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) reflectance and photoluminescence have been used to characterize epitaxial films on wafers up to 4″ diameter. Mapping distributions of the film thickness, sheet resistivity, surface morphology, and PL peak wavelength with uniformities better than 1% are illustrated. Data from our 2900 runs are produced. Variations of the characteristic features of the film with the growth conditions are discussed. These whole wafer and non-destructive material characterization techniques tightly coupled with the epitaxial processes are necessary to realize the high quality and high uniformity growth of state-of-art materials in a production environment.
