Influence of a Bi surfactant on Sb incorporation in InAsSb alloys

Abstract

The influence of using a Bi surfactant during the growth of InAsSb on the composition was examined, and it was found that increasing Bi flux on the surface during growth inhibits the incorporation of Sb. Analysis of the data via a kinetic model of anion incorporation shows that surface Bi acts as a catalyst for InAs formation, thus inhibiting Sb incorporation.
