Abstract

A detailed study of interface states in interfacial misfit (IMF) grown GaSb on GaAs substrates is presented. Two types of structures, namely, uncompensated and Te compensated, are investigated using current-voltage, capacitance-frequency, conductance-frequency, and deep level transient spectroscopy techniques. Our studies reveal that incorporation of Te at the interface (IMF) causes a degradation of the Te-compensated devices. A higher number of electrical active defects and higher value of interface states are detected in Te-compensated IMF GaSb/GaAs devices compared with as-grown IMF GaSb/GaAs devices.
