Abstract:Chirped superlattices are of interest as buffer layers in metamorphic semiconductor device structures, because they can combine the mismatch accommodating properties of compositionally-graded layers with the dislocation filtering properties of superlattices. Important practical aspects of the chirped superlattice as a buffer layer are the surface strain and surface in-plane lattice constant. In this work we studied two basic types of InGaAs/GaAs chirped superlattice buffers; type I is compositionally modulated… Show more
