Zusammenfassung:Carbon doping of In0.53Ga0.47As has been investigated in a production molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system equipped with a CBr4 gas line. Growth temperature and As4 flux effects on surface morphology and efficiency of carbon doping are studied. Hole concentrations from 1.7X1017 to 1.3X1020cm-3 have been obtained. A first set of samples shows no significant difference in mobility for comparable beryllium- and carbon-doping levels either in solid source production (Riber MBE49) or in gas source research (Riber MBE32) systems. Best results for carbon doping are obtained with a low As4 flux and a growth temperature in the 400-425 deg C range. A nearly ideal emitter-base I(V) characteristic has been obtained for a doping level of 8X1019cm-3, which is promising for high-frequency InP-based HBTs issue.
