Influence of Substrate Orientation on Be Transport during Molecular Beam Epitaxy of AlGaAs/GaAs Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors
View through CrossRef
The influence of substrate orientation on Be transport during GaAs molecular beam epitaxy is evaluated by secondary ion mass spectrometry and from the current-voltage characteristics of AlGaAs/GaAs heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBTs). The Be doping level employed is from 2×1019 cm-3 to 9×1019 cm-3. The Be transport for the conventional (100) orientation increases rapidly with the increase of growth temperature (T
s) from 530°C to 630°C. With substrate misorientation from (100) toward (111)A, however, Be transport is decreased at T
s=630°C, and reaches a minimum with (311)A orientation. The maximum current gain of AlGaAs/GaAs HBTs grown at T
s=560°C is 264 for (411)A orientation and 3 for (100) orientation, which confirms the applicability of substrate orientations other than the conventional (100) one for obtaining a sharp Be profile.
