Compound semiconductors such as Gallium Arsenide, Gallium Aluminum Arsenide, and Indium Phosphide are often difficult to characterize and present a variety of challenges from substrate preparation, to epitaxial growth to dielectric film deposition to dopant introduction.
This book reviews the common classes of compound semiconductors, their physical, optical and electrical properties and the various types of methods used for characterizing them when analyzing for defects and application problems.
