Abstract: | The formation of InAs1−x−y
SbxBiy/InSb and InAs1−x−y
SbxBiy/InSbyBiy strained-layer heterostructures by “capillary” LPE is simulated. The laws governing the dependence of the gap width E
g
and the thickness d of the epilayers on the conditions of the process are revealed. It is shown that because of the sharp increase in the rate
of epitaxial deposition as the LPE temperature is raised, the successful growth of epilayers of subcritical thickness is possible
only up to T<550 K. The influence of the rate of laminar flow of the liquid in the growth channel in a relaxation regime and in a continuous
pumping regime on the uniformity of the distribution of E
g
and d in the epitaxial heterostructures is analyzed. Effective combinations of parameters for carrying out the process, which ensure
the achievement of E
g
≈0.1 eV (77 K) in the active layers with variable-band-gap layers of minimal thickness, are established.
