摘要

We have studied the etching effect of Al_xGa_1-xAs (0≤×≤0.5) by trisdimethylaminoarsenic (TDMAAs) at different substrate temperatures, and the quality of the resulting etched/regrown GaAs interface. We find that the etching rate of Al_xGa_1-xAs decreases with increasing Al composition, and the interface trap density of the TDMAAs etched/regrown interface can be reduced by about a factor of 10 as deduced from capacitance-voltage carrier profiles. A smooth surface morphology of GaAs with an interface state density of 1.4×10¹¹ cm^-2 can be obtained at a lower in-situ etching temperature of 550 °C. Moreover, by using this in-situ etching the I-V characteristics of regrown p-n junctions of Al_0.35Ga_0.65As/Al_0.25Ga_0.75As and Al_0.35Ga_0.65As/GaAs can be improved.
