Abstract
Surface photoabsorption (SPA) is an in situ technique for monitoring III-V semiconductors in an MOVPE reactor. When used in conjunction with UV absorption, it gives information about the strain associated with the growth of ideal (one monolayer) and nonideal (more than one monolayer) GaAs interfaces in InAs/GaSb superlattices. Raman scattering has been used as an ex situ technique for quantifying the strain in these superlattices. It is found that the LO frequency blue shifts by 3 cm-1 when nonideal interfaces are grown.
