Abstract

Using methods of the X-ray diffraction and Raman backscattering.were studied properties of AlGaAs/GaAs (100) MOCVD heterostructures which have been grown up at low temperature (LT). It is established, that dependence on Al concentration of AlGaAs solid solutions crystal lattice parameter does not submit to classical Vegard's law, and values of parameters are less than at GaAs.

Methods of Raman backscattering.shown that at high concentration of a carbon acceptor atoms concentrate on defects of a crystal lattice of AlGaAs solid solution with formation of carbon nanoclusters is confirmed.
