Title:
【発明の名称】III―V/II―VI半導体インターフェイス製造法
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2000501889
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
A method for repeatably fabricating GaAs/ZnSe and other III-V/II-VI semiconductor interfaces with relatively low stacking fault densities in II-VI semiconductor devices such as laser diodes. The method includes providing a molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system including at least a group III element source, a group II element source, a group V element source and a group VI element source. A semiconductor substrate having a III-V semiconductor surface on which the interface is to be fabricated is positioned within the MBE system. The substrate is then heated to a temperature suitable for III-V semiconductor growth, and a crystalline III-V semiconductor buffer layer grown on the III-V surface of the substrate. The temperature of the semiconductor substrate is then adjusted to a temperature suitable for II-VI semiconductor growth, and a crystalline II-VI semiconductor buffer layer grown on the III-V buffer layer by alternating beam epitaxy. The group II and group VI sources are operated to expose the III-V buffer layer to a group II element flux before exposing the III-V buffer layer to a group VI element flux.
