摘要
The misfit dislocations at the interfaces of two different In0.09Ga0.91As/GaAs(001) heterostructures have been analysed by transmission electron microscopy using plan-view and cross-sectional specimens. The structures present 60 degrees type misfit dislocations with 1/2 [110] {111} slip system. The spacing of misfit dislocations, using cross-sectional specimens, is measured at the individual interfaces in the heterostructures. Tetragonal distortions in the InGaAs epilayers are detected using convergent-beam electron diffraction. A computer simulation matching procedure shows a small contraction and expansion in a and c respectively.
