Abstract

The disordering of All-xGaxAs/GaAs superlattices by ion-implantation has been studied by cross-sectional electron microscopy. It has been found that the superlattice intermixing is extensive only when accompanied by superlattice amorphization or impurity diffusion. Stacking-fault tetrahedra, interstitial dislocation loops and microtwins are the main types of defects observed after implantation and annealing. The defects are stratified and interact with the periodic strain-field of the superlattice. © 1987 SPIE.
