ABSTRACT:
A III-V semiconductor heterojunction in which a capping layer (14) is formed between the two layers (10, 16) of the heterojunction to prevent any deleterious effects due to As-P exchange. When InAlAs is grown on InP, the capping layer is AlP. When GaAs is grown on GaInP, the capping layer is GaP.
