Abstract

Indium phosphide (InP) and its related alloys InGaAs(P) have received much attention because of their wide use in the fabrication of laser diodes and detectors operating in the 1.3–1.7-μn wavelength region (see Ref. [1]). High-speed electronic devices, such as heterojunction bipolar transistors and high-electron mobility transistors are also being realized from InP-related heterostructures (see Ref. [2]). A review of many phySiCal and semiconducting properties of InP has been given in Refs. [3–5].
