We showed there is a stable saturation roughness specific to the orientation of the wafer, but much greater than the values predicted by the simulators. The same saturation roughness is reached independent on the initial roughness of the surface. Surfactants dissolved in small concentrations in the etchant were shown to reduce drastically the saturation value of the roughness and rise the etching rates, without affecting noticeable the anisotropy diagrams.","PeriodicalId":144314,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Semiconductor Conference 20th Edition.

We selected deliberately different thickness and doping concentrations of each layer for their potential applications in very high frequency bipolar transistors. A sequence of six epilayers were realized by vapour phase epitaxy. The characterization of crystallographic and semiconducting properties in correlation with technological processes is performed by TSC-method and by double crystal X-ray diffraction. We propose a kinematics model of X-ray diffraction in heteroepitaxial muitilayer structures of InP/InGaAs. It is based on a discontinuous lattice misfit and elastic strain distribution. The model fits well the rocking curves obtained for both (004) and (224) reflecting planes. The values of the lattice misfit and the elastic strains in the plane of lamellae were calculated.","PeriodicalId":144314,"journal":{"name":"1997 International Semiconductor Conference 20th Edition.
