Abstract: | At temperatures above the brittle-to-ductile transition (490 °C) in Te-doped GaAs three types of predominant defect configurations have been observed after uniaxial compression along a [001] direction: (i) twins and stacking faults (500 … 520 °C), (ii) slip zones of dislocations (≈ 550 °C) and (iii) dislocation cells (580 … 590 °C). In Part I quantitative details of the appearance of twins and stacking faults are given. Most frequently found were 30° partials in twins and stacking faults. |
