摘要
The selective growth of InP/InGaAs ridges aligned along the < 010 > direction was studied using scanning electron microscopy and photoluminescence measurements. The ridges exhibit very smooth {110} sidewalls and (0 0 1) top facets. The diffusion of the group III species from the sidewalls to the top (0 0 1) surface was modelled to provide a predictive tool for determining ridge growth, and the optical properties of InGaAs QWs incorporated in the ridges. No growth occurs on the {110} sidewalls until the ridges complete due to the diffusion of In species to the top (0 0 1) facet. The situation for Ga is quite different, with no diffusion off the {110} facets observed, and little or no Ga being incorporated on the {110} surface before or after ridge completion.
