Modulation-doped In{sub 0.53}Ga{sub 0.47}As/In{sub 0.52}Al{sub 0.48}As heterostructures grown on GaAs substrates using step-graded In{sub {ital x}}Ga{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}As buffers
Abstract
We have grown modulation-doped In{sub 0.53}Ga{sub 0.47}As/In{sub 0.52}Al{sub 0.48}As heterostructures on GaAs substrates using compositionally step-graded In{sub {ital x}}Ga{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}As buffers. Triple-axis x-ray diffraction measurements indicate nearly complete and isotropic strain relaxation in the buffer, lattice matching of the active layers with the top of the buffer, and no significant epilayer tilt. The temperature dependence and the photoresponse of the electron mobility suggest that transport in the heterostructures is limited principally by remote ionized-impurity scattering, with mobility values comparable to those of heterostructures grown lattice-matched to InP. {copyright} {ital 1996 American Vacuum Society}
