Abstract

The aim of this work was to find out technological conditions which allow to obtain undoped GaP single crystals (“n” type) with carrier concentration below 5x1016cm-3.

Synthesis by injection method and Czochralski crystal growth were used applying Liquid Encapsulation Technique. In this work the influence of water content in B2O3 encapsulant (applied during injection synthesis and LEC growth) on GaP crystals properties was investigated.

Two different thermal systems were applied: standard (2 heaters) and modified (with additional heater inside encapsulant layer). The reactions inside the crucible were investigated with the special focus on the role of carbon.

Undoped GaP single crystals with 2 inches diameter and carrier concentration below 5x1016cm-3 and high mobility (>130cm2/Vs) were grown.
