%J 材料科学技术学报 %D 1998 %I %X Growth of ln0.52Al0.48As epitaxial layers on lnP(100) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy at a wide range of arsenic overpressures (V/III flux ratios from 30 to 300) has been carried out. Analysis performed using low-temperature photoluminescence (PL) and double-axis X-ray diffraction (XRD) shows a strong and prominent dependence of the PL and XRD linewidths on the V/III flux ratio. Under our growth conditions, both the PL and XRD linewidths exhibit a minimum point at a V/III flux ratio of 150 which corresponds to a maximum in the PL intensity and XRD intensity ratio. Flux ratios exceeding 150 result in an increase in both the PL and XRD linewidths corresponding to a reduction in their associated intensities. Room temperature Raman scattering measurements show a narrowing in the lnAs-like and AlAs-like longitudinal-optic (LO)phonon linewidths which broaden at high flux ratios, while the LO phonon frequencies exhibit a gradual reduction as the flux ratio is increased. PL spectra taken at increasing temperatures show a quenching of the main emission peak followed by the evolution of a broad lower energy emission which is possibly associated with deep lying centres. This effect is more prominent in samples grown at lower V/III flux ratios. Hall effect measurements show a gradual reduction in the mobility in correspondence to an increase in the electron concentration as the flux ratio is increased. %U http://www.alljournals.cn/get_abstract_url.aspx?pcid=5B3AB970F71A803DEACDC0559115BFCF0A068CD97DD29835&cid=84529CA2B2E519AC&jid=324DC3CAB22330DB19158AE0A9B7BFA5&aid=7E30BC91C99ED51F&yid=8CAA3A429E3EA654&vid=F3583C8E78166B9E&iid=38B194292C032A66&sid=FA89360EB995A8AD&eid=6CCE24D86D03D083&journal_id=1005-0302&journal_name=材料科学技术学报&referenced_num=0&reference_num=0
