Greene, J.E. Fang, Shushan 2014-12-16T20:52:20Z 2014-12-16T20:52:20Z 10000-01-01 1988 1988 A theory to calculate (III-V)$\sb{\rm 1-x}$(IV$\sb2$)$\sb{\rm x}$ pseudobinary phase diagrams was developed. Activities of zincblende-structure and diamond-structure (III-V)$\sb{\rm 1-x}$(IV$\sb2$)$\sb{\rm x}$ solid solutions were derived. Good agreements between experimental and theoretical results for GaAs-Ge, BaSb-Ge, and GaAs-Sn systems were obtained. A model was developed to predict zincblende to diamond phase transformation would occur at x$\sb{\rm c}$ = 0.26. Single-phase polycrystalline (GaAs)$\sb{\rm 1-x}$(Sn$\sb2$)$\sb{\rm x}$ films were grown by Rf-sputter deposition with x up to 0.06 for V$\sb{\rm s}$ (substrate bias) = 75 V, and up to 0.17 for V$\sb{\rm s}$ = 225 V. The reaction path of metastable (GaAs)$\sb{\rm 1-x}$(Sn$\sb2$)$\sb{\rm x}$ alloys followed the sequence: (1) metastable single phase, (2) GaAs rich and $\alpha$-Sn-rich phases, (3) $\alpha$-Sn transformed into $\beta$-Sn, and (4) $\beta$-Sn transformed into liquid. No single phase metastable (GaAs)$\sb{\rm 1-x}$(Sn$\sb2$)$\sb{\rm x}$ alloys were obtained by annealing amorphous ion-mixed GaAs/Sn multilayer films, and the reaction path followed the sequence: (1) amorphous, (2) mixtures of (GaAs)$\sb{\rm 1-x}$(Sn$\sb2$)$\sb{\rm x}$ alloys, GaAs, $\beta$-Sn, and $\alpha$-Sn, (3) $\alpha$-Sn transformed into $\beta$-Sn, and (4) $\beta$-Sn transformed into the liquid phase.
