Abstract

GaAs Has Been Grown By Molecular-Beam Epitaxy (MBE) With Large Concentrations (∼1018CM−2) Of Sn, Si, Ge, And Mn As Dopants. The Heavily-Doped N-Type Material Has Been Found To Contain Regions Of A Very High Dislocation Density. An Analysis Of The Less Complex Defect Areas Shows That The Dislocations Originate In The MBE-Grown Layer. These Observations And Others On More Complex Defect Clusters Are Compared With Recent Studies Of Defects In Material Grown By Liquid Phase Epitaxy (LPE). The More Heavily Doped P-Type Material Contains Discs Of Mn-Rich Material At The Surface Of The MBEgrown Epilayer. Both The Structure And Composition Of These Regions Have Been Examined.
