Abstract
With optimized buffer design, we demonstrate a new InAs/AlSb resonant tunneling diode (RTD) on lattice-unmatched semi-insulating (SI) GaAs (100) substrates aiming for terahertz oscillators. To obtain high crystal quality and smooth surface, 5 periods InGaAs/GaAs (2ML/2ML) superlattices (SLs) buffer layer was used as dislocation filters (DFs). Xray diffraction (XRD) measurement showed the full width at half maximum (FWHM) of 331arcsec and surface roughness of 2.4nm over 10μm×10μm. 8-μm-diam diodes were fabricated by standard mesa process. I-V characteristic of the diodes shows negative conductivity at room temperature and a peak current density of 1.79×105A • cm-2 was achieved.
