Abstract

by molecular-beam epitaxy we have grown epitaxial layers of GaAs1–xBix solid solutions with a bismuth content of 0 < x < 0.02. Structural and optical properties of the layers were investigated. We determine the influence of the bismuth flux and substrate temperature on the bismuth incorporation into the growing layers.
