Mutual passivation of electrically active and isovalent impurities
Abstract
The alloy GaN<sub>x</sub>As<sub>1-x</sub> (with x typically less than 0.05) is a novel semiconductor that has many interesting electronic properties because of the nitrogen-induced dramatic modifications of the conduction band structure of the host material (GaAs), Here we demonstrate the existence of an entirely new effect in the Ga<sub>x</sub>As<sub>1-x</sub> alloy system in which the Si donor in the substitututional Ga site (Si<sub>Ga</sub>) and the isovalent atom N in the As sublattice (N<sub>As</sub>) passivate each other's electronic activity. This mutual passivation occurs in Si-doped GaN <sub>x</sub>As<sub>1-x</sub> through the formation of nearest-neighbour Si <sub>Ga</sub>-N<sub>As</sub> pairs and is thermally stable up to 950 °C. Consequently, Si doping in GaN<sub>x</sub>As<sub>1-x</sub> under equilibrium conditions results in a highly resistive GaN<sub>x</sub>As<sub>1-x</sub> layer with the fundamental bandgap governed by a net 'active' N, roughly equal to the total N content minus the Si concentration. Such mutual passivation is expected to be a general phenomenon for electrically active dopants and localized state impurities that can form nearest-neighbour pairs.
