<p>A method of forming a semiconductor structure including providing a single crystal semiconductor substrate of GaP, and fabricating a graded composition buffer including a plurality of epitaxial semiconductor Inx(AlyGa1-y)1-xP alloy layers. The buffer includes a first alloy layer immediately contacting the substrate having a lattice constant that is nearly identical to that of the substrate, subsequent alloy layers having lattice constants that differ from adjacent layers by less than 1 %, and a final alloy layer having a lattice constant that is substantially different from the substrate. The growth temperature of the final alloy layer is at least 20 °C less than the growth temperature of the first alloy layer.</p> |
