Selective Area Epitaxy for Optoelectronic Devices
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 22 February 2011
Abstract
We discuss the characteristics of MOMBE based selective area epitaxy useful in the preparation of optoelectronic devices. Selective area epitaxy, a process in which epitaxy is restricted only to the areas opened in a suitably prepared dielectric mask, offers a powerful method of preparing high performance devices, varying the thickness and composition of the grown layers simply by controlling the width of the open areas and monolithically integrating different device types on common substrates. Lasers, heterostructure bipolar transistors, and optoelectronic integrated circuits based on InGaAs/InP system and relying on selective area epitaxy are described.
