Titanium-doped semi-insulating InP grown by the liquid encapsulated Czochralski method

Abstract
Semi-insulating crystals of InP with resistivities of 1–3×106 Ω cm have been grown by the liquid encapsulated Czochralski method from melts co-doped with Ti, a deep donor located 0.62±0.02 eV below the conduction band, and either Zn, Cd, or Be. This technique should make it possible to obtain crystals with resistivities of 107–108 Ω cm, which would be of interest for integrated circuit applications if their thermal stability were found to exceed that of Fe-doped semi-insulating InP.
