| Research Abstract |
We introduced new growth/doping method foe selective micro-area and demonstrated in-situ maskless selective doping of compound semiconductor films using low-energy focused ion beam. This in-situ growth and doping method is thought to be essential in maskless selective device fabrication.
In this study, maskless selective growth of Sn and Be-doped GaAs films were performed using a low energy (30-200 eV)Sn and Be-Ga focused ion beam (FIB), with simultaneous irradiation of As_4 molecular beam. Selective n-type and p-type films of GaAs were grown successfully. Moreover, it was found that irradiation damages could be minimized and the surface morphology was improved using the low-energy FIB. A p-n junction was formed on n^+-typeGaAs substrate by maskless selective growth for the first time. The I-V characteristics of the sample confirmed the p-n structure. These results indicate this method would be sutable for making maskless selective micro--device fabrication.
