ABSTRACT:
A method for reliably producing epitaxial layers of chrome doped gallium arsenide having excellent physical and electrical characteristics is disclosed. The process relies on the use of a specific dopant source for supplying chromium containing entities through the composition used in chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of gallium arsenide. The dopant source is obtained by chemical vapor deposition of a chromium oxide. This dopant is then utilized in a CVD process by flowing a reactive gas such as AsCl.sub.3 over the precipitate to form volatile chromium containing compounds which are combined with a GaAs CVD composition. The insulating gallium arsenide layers thus obtained have excellent electrical properties, resistivities greater than 10.sup.3 ohm-cm and exhibit no discernible particle induced surface irregularities.
