Abstract
InP1-xBix epilayers with bismuth (Bi)
concentration x= 1.0% were grown on InP by gas source molecular beam
epitaxy (GS-MBE) at low temperature (LT). Bi incorporation decreased the
intrinsic free electron concentration of low temperature grown InP
indicated by hall analysis. It is concluded that deep level center was
introduced by Bi. Influence of Si doping on the
InP1-xBix films Photoluminescence (PL) was
investigated. N-type doping in the InP1-xBix
epilayers was found to be effective at PL enhancement. Blue shift of
InPBi PL emission wavelength was observed as the Si doping concentration
increasing. Two independent peaks were fitted and their temperature
dependence behavior was observed to be distinct obviously. Two
individual radiative recombination processes were expected to be
involved.
