Investigation of dopants on Structural Properties of Ternary Semi conductors V. Rama Murthy & Alla. Srivani Research Scholar Rayalaseema university P.G Department of Physics, T.J.P.S College Guntur-6 A.P India

Abstract: Lattice constants of the III-V Ternary compounds also tend to be different, causes defects in amounts dependent on the mismatch magnitude; this influences the ratio of achievable radiative/nonradiative recombinations and determines the luminous efficiency of the device. Some of these materials are tunable by alloying multiple compound semiconductors in band gap or Lattice constant.

Keywords: Lattice constant, concentration, III-V Ternary Compounds

Introduction: 1)In the large family of III-V ternary compounds one could expect to find systematic trends for the Physical properties like Lattice constant. 2)In this opening talk of these III-V Ternary Semi conducting Compounds I would like first describe Influence of Concentration on Lattice constant of III-V Ternary Semiconductors. 3)I will then discuss several points related with the structural Properties of these ternary compounds. I will show that very simple questions have not yet received satisfactory answers and emphasize some problems, which remain unsolved. 4)There exist a number of ternary III–V and II–VI systems, where the lattice parameters of the constituent Binary compounds straddle the lattice parameter of silicon. 5)Lattice-matched solid solutions of these materials emerge from the large number of pseudo ternary containing hypothetical compositions that match the lattice parameter of silicon on the basis of Vegard’s law. 6)Lattice constant, defines distance between atoms in cubic-cell crystals. 7)III-V compound semiconductor materials generally have a zinc blend structure, which is made up out of two face centered cubic units cells, displaced over a quarter diagonal. Many of these Compounds have direct band gap and hence a non-phonon assisted optical transition is possible. The resulting high optical transition probability is of utmost importance for device applications in optical communications. 8)The lattice constants and the band gap energy of the ternary compounds can be obtained from the Binary constituents by Vegard’s law. 9)In the last two or three decades the researcher's interest in III-V Ternary semiconductors is growing up dramatically. There are several reasons for this, but the more significant are their multiple applications on one hand and their special and different properties, in comparison with conventional semiconductors. 10)The examples of these III-V Ternary compounds are some of the more characteristic. In a lot of cases these semiconductors have to be doped because of device's or application's demands. But then the properties of these materials, and especially their Structural properties, are affected, mainly, by the site occupancy of impurities

Objective: The main objective of this paper is to show variation of Lattice constant with composition (x) in 23 different III-V Ternary Semi conducting Compounds.

Purpose: The purpose of study is effect of composition in Lattice constant of 23 III-V Ternary Semi conducting Compounds to represent additivity principle even in very low composition range.

Theoretical Impact: 1)III-V Ternary Semi conducting compounds represents substitution pseudo binary alloys. There have been numerous experimental studies of the Structural properties of III-V Ternary Semi conducting compounds. These experimental Studies have mostly been limited to the reflectance or absorption spectroscopy in the narrow spectral range. 2)An excellent agreement with the experimental data is obtained for the entire investigated spectral region and for all compositions 3)The properties of III-V Ternary Semi conducting compounds is in additive nature if solute composition is less than solvent composition. 4)The main aim of modeling the Structural properties of a ternary alloy is to make the calculation of the physical constants for compositions with no available experimental data possible. 5)In this paper we present a method that can accurately and reliably determine the Lattice constant as a function of composition (x). 6)If the dependence of the physical constants on the alloy composition is known, spectroscopic ellipsometry can be used to monitor the alloy composition. 7)The first approach of this paper is to determine the physical parameters for particular compositions and then to find the physical function describing the dependence of the physical parameters on the alloy Composition (x). 8)The second approach of this paper is to simultaneously fit in the data sets for all available compositions in order to minimize the discrepancies between the calculated and the experimental Data over the entire composition range.

Variation of Lattice constant (a12) with composition (x) is given. It has been observed that Lattice constant (a12) increase for compounds (x=0.0-1.0) with the increase of composition.

Future Plans: 1) Current data set to include the most recently developed methods and basis sets are continuing. The data is also being mined to reveal problems with existing theories and used to indicate where additional research needs to be done in future. 2) The technological importance of the ternary semiconductor alloy systems investigated makes an understanding of the phenomena of alloy broadening necessary, as it may be important in affecting semiconductor device performance.

Conclusion:

This paper needs to be addressed theoretically so that a fundamental understanding of the physics involved in such phenomenon can be obtained in spite of Dependence of Lattice constant (a12) in III-V Ternary Semiconductors On Composition. The semiconductors have been carried out because of computational complexities and difficulties associate with disorder in the alloys. Polycrystalline ternary composition materials find application in tunable detectors and in other optoelectronic devices. Our results regarding the Structural properties of the ternary alloys are found to be in reasonable agreement with the experimental data.

SUMMARY: I have reviewed the available information about Lattice constant of structural parameters for 23 technologically important III–V Semi conductors Ternary Semi conductors.

Acknowledgments. – This review has benefited from V.R Murthy, K.C Sathyalatha contribution who carried out the calculation of physical properties for several ternary compounds with additivity principle. It is a pleasure to acknowledge several fruitful discussions with V.R Murthy.
