Abstract

Processes are considered in which ultrathin layers of III–V ternary solid solutions are formed via the delivery of Group-V element vapors to GaAs and GaSb semiconductor plates, with solid-phase substitution reactions occurring in the surface layers of these plates. This method can form defect-free GaAs1–xPx, GaAsxSb1–x, and GaPxSb1–x layers with thicknesses of 10–20 nm and a content x of the embedded components of up to 0.04.
