摘要
A systematic investigation of GaAs layers grown at low temperatures was carried out by means of positron annihilation. The vacancy defects in undoped as-grown material were identified to be mainly Ga vacancies (V-Ga) by comparing the annihilation parameters to those of Ca vacancies in highly Si-doped GaAs. The characteristic S parameter for positron annihilation in Ga vacancies was determined to be S(V-Ga) = 1.024(1). The V-Ga concentration increases up to 10(18) cm(-3) by decreasing the growth temperature to 200 degrees C. The vacancy concentration can account for the compensation of As-Ga(+) antisites as was previously assumed. (C) 1997 American Institute of Physics.
