Abstract

This study investigates the lateral oxidation enhancement of Al0.98Ga0.02As/Al0.7Ga0.3As distributed Bragg reflector (DBR) structure layers implanted with either oxygen or hydrogen ions. The results revealed that the lateral oxidation rate of Al0.98Ga0.02As/Al0.7Ga0.3As DBR layers with oxygen-implantation was higher than that in the case without oxygen-implantation, but hydrogen implantation in Al0.98Ga0.02As/Al0.7Ga0.3As DBR layers did not lead to an oxidation enhancement phenomenon. A high oxidation rate can shorten the oxidation time or lower the oxidation temperature, and thus would aid in increasing DBR performance and reliability.
