Raman scattering was shown to be a useful tool for studying the lattice disorder versus depth in ion-implanted InP. A conductivity compensation was reached in n-InP by N{sup +}-implantation and subsequent annealing in the temperature interval from 400 to 600 C. Although the values of resistivity are moderate (up to 10{sup 4} {Omega} {center_dot} cm), they prove to be sufficient for the purpose of fabricating InP membranes by using selective anodic etching techniques. This important feature opens new possibilities for applications of InP.
