Abstract
The structural and optical properties of GaxIn1−xAs/AlyIn1−yAs superlattices grown lattice matched to InP by molecular-beam epitaxy have been studied by means of x-ray diffraction and infrared absorption spectroscopy. Our results demonstrate that the growth of a strain-free interface configuration is the most important condition to obtain narrow x-ray diffraction linewidths and sharp optical transition lines.This publication has 10 references indexed in Scilit:
