Abstract

Post-growth annealing treatments in the range 400-600 °C are performed on GaSb/GaAs Interfacial Misfit grown samples. Current density-voltage (J-V), Capacitance-voltage (C-V), capacitance-frequency (C-F) and Deep Level Transient Spectroscopy (DLTS) measurements are performed on as-grown and annealed samples. Our studies show that possible defect compensation is observed with the annealing treatments, resulting in a significant improvement in the performances of the devices.
