Owing to the non-stoichiometric condition, there are many pores in the tail of the P-rich ingot. Samples were characterized by high speed photoluminescence mapping and E.P.D. mapping. The perfection (dislocation, stoichiometry and uniformity) of these samples were studied and compared. The PL peak intensity standard deviation of the 4-inch InP wafer is higher. The EPDs around the pores are higher than the other regions. Besides the stress releasing, the pores and the high concentration of dislocations around them are the leading factors causing the inhomogeneity of the wafer. By adjusting the thermal field and ensuring the chemical stoichiometry, InP crystals of larger diameters and better performance can be developed.展开更多

There were five kinds of defects in these single crystals: cracks, inclusions, gas bubbles, unhomogeneous distribution of Sr2+, and substructures. CH3COOH aqueous solution was used to etch these single crystals, and the etch-pit density was calculated. The fort-nation mechanism of these defects was discussed. It is suggested that the good preparation of raw materials and the stringent growth conditions play an important role in growing high quality single crystals.展开更多

A single phase dense AgGaS2 polycrystalline ingot was synthesized, and a crack-free AgGaS2 single crystal with 15 mm in diameter and 30 mm in length was grown by the techniques mentioned above. Structure integrity of the crystal was studied by the X-ray diffraction technique. Six order X-ray spectra from the {011} face of the crystal were obtained, and an anomalous phenomenon was observed for the first time that intensity of the higher order diffraction peak is much stronger than that of the lower order diffraction peak. Etch-pits of the crystal were observed by the scanning electron microscopy (SEM).展开更多
