Abstract

The invention provides a growth method for improving the hole concentration of carbon-doped gallium indium arsenide. The growth method comprises the following steps: S1, preparing a substrate; s2, growing a first epitaxial layer upwards, wherein the first epitaxial layer is a C-doped GaAs epitaxial layer or a non-doped InAs epitaxial layer; s3, a second epitaxial layer grows upwards, and when the first epitaxial layer is a C-doped GaAs epitaxial layer, the second epitaxial layer is a non-doped InAs epitaxial layer; when the first epitaxial layer is a non-doped InAs epitaxial layer, the second epitaxial layer is a C-doped GaAs epitaxial layer; and S4, repeating the step S2 and the step S3 until the preset thickness is reached. Due to the fact that C occupies the As position more easily in GaAs to provide a hole, C only needs to be doped in the GaAs epitaxial layer and not doped in the InAs epitaxial layer in the doping control process, C can be prevented from occupying the In position, and the hole activation rate is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor material epitaxial growth, and in particular relates to a growth method for increasing hole concentration of carbon-doped gallium indium arsenide. Background technique [0002] At present, indium gallium arsenide (InGaAs) materials are widely used in the preparation of various optoelectronic devices and high-frequency microelectronic devices such as light-emitting diodes, laser diodes, photodetectors, and heterojunction bipolar transistors. Before the manufacture of these devices, epitaxial growth is first required. During the epitaxial growth process, n-type or p-type doping is performed on the material to form a carrier layer, which provides carriers for the device or reduces the resistance of the device. [0003] In the epitaxial growth process, carbon (C) dopants are usually used as p-type doping of InGaAs to provide holes for the InGaAs film. C doping has the advantages of high solubil...
