磷化铟中铁原子替位与填隙的热致转变及其对材料性质的影响

高温退火后掺铁半绝缘(SI)InP单晶转变为n型低阻材料.利用霍尔效应(Hall)，热激电流谱(TSC)，深能级瞬态谱(DLTS)，X射线衍射等方法分别研究了退火前后InP材料的性质和缺陷.结果表明受高温热激发作用部分铁原子由替位转变为填隙，导致InP材料缺少深能级补偿中心而发生导电类型转变.通过比较掺杂、扩散和离子注入过程Fe原子的占位和激活情况分析了这一现象的机理和产生原因.关键词：磷化铟铁激活退火半绝缘

Thermally induced Fe atom transition from substitutional to interstitial sites in InP and its influence on material property

As-grown Fe-doped semi-insulating InP single crystal has been converted into n-type low-resistance material after high temperature annealing. Defects in the InP materials have been studied by conventional Hall effect measurement, thermally stimulated current spectroscopy, deep level transient spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction respectively. The results indicate that Fe atoms in the InP material change from the substitutional to the interstitial sites under thermal activation. Consequently, the InP material loses its deep compensation centers which results in the change in types of conduction. The mechanism and cause of the phenomena have been analyzed through comparison of the sites of Fe atom occupation and activation in doping, diffusion and ion implantation processes of InP.
