Advances in large-diameter liquid encapsulated Czochralski GaAsThe purity, crystalline perfection, and electrical properties of n- and p-type GaAs crystals grown by the liquid encapsulated Czochralski (LEC) technique are evaluated. The determination of the dislocation density, incidence of twinning, microstructure, background purity, mobility, and minority carrier diffusion length is included. The properties of the LEC GaAs crystals are generally comparable to, if not superior to those of small-diameter GaAs material grown by conventional bulk growth techniques. As a result, LEC GaAs is suitable for application to minority carrier devices requiring high-quality and large-area substrates.
