N2 - Properties of GaAs and InGaAs/GaAs epitaxial interfaces formed by interrupted OMPVE regrowth are studied using C-V, I-V, DLTS, cross-sectional TEM and RBS techniques. Various types of anomalous depletion and accumulation carrier concentration profiles are observed at regrown interfaces prepared under various growth and processing conditions. Based on experiments, a new generalized model for regrowth epitaxial interfaces is proposed which involves formation of gap state continuum as well as adsorption enhanced incorporation of shallow donor/acceptor impurity atoms. The introduction of gap state continuum is explained by the recently proposed disorder induced gap state (DIGS) model in which crystalline disorder within a few monolayers of the regrown interface region gives rise to state continuum, leading to the observed anomalous carrier profiles.
