LEC Growth of GaSb Single Crystals Using Boric Oxide

The Liquid Encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) technique using low viscosity B2O3 containing Na2AlF6as an encapsulant is proposed. A detail of the growth technique is described and GaSb single crystals are prepared. Mass spectroscopic analysis and Hall coefficient measurements are performed for the grown crystal and the results are compared with those for the charged material.

High quality 2-μm GaSb-based optically pumped semiconductor disk laser grown by molecular beam epitaxy

The epitaxial growth conditions and performance of a diode-pumped GaSb-based optically pumped semiconductor disk laser (SDL) emitting near 2.0 μm in an external cavity configuration are reported. The high quality epitaxial structure, grown on Te-doped (001) oriented GaSb substrate by molecular beam epitaxy, consists of a distributed Bragg reflector (DBR), a multi-quantum-well gain region, and a window layer. An intra-cavity SiC heat spreader was attached to the gain chip for effective thermal management. A continuous-wave output power of over 1 W operating at 2.03 μm wavelength operating near room temperature was achieved using a 3% output coupler.

2.2–2.7 μm side wall corrugated index coupled distributed feedback GaSb based laser diodes

We report on the modeling, growth, processing, characterization and integration in a gas detection setup of side wall corrugated distributed feed-back antimonide diode lasers emitting at 2.28 and 2.67 μm. The laser structures were grown by molecular beam epitaxy on GaSb substrate. Ridge lasers were fabricated from the grown wafers according to the following process: a second order Bragg grating was defined on the sides of the ridges by interferometric lithography, optical lithography and etched in a Cl-based inductively coupled plasma reactor. The devices exhibit a power reaching 40 mW, a side mode suppression ratio better than 28 dB and a tuning range of 3 nm at room temperature. One of these devices was successfully integrated in a tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy setup, thus demonstrating that they are suitable for gas analysis.

Interfacial and mechanical characterization of wafer-bonded GaSb/amorphous α-(Ga,As)/GaAs structure for GaSb-on-insulator applications

In this study, the feasibility of using wafer-bonding technology to fabricate a GaSb semiconductor on GaAs substrates for potentially creating a GaSb-on-insulator structure has been demonstrated. A GaSb wafer has been bonded on two types of GaAs substrates: (1) a regular single crystal semi-insulating GaAs substrate and (2) the GaAs wafers with pre-deposited low-temperature amorphous α-(Ga,As) layers. The microstructures and interface adhesion studies have been carried out on these wafer-bonded semiconductors. It has been found that the GaSb-on-α-(Ga,As) wafers have shown enhanced interface adhesion and lower temperature bonding capability.
