ABOUT THE GROUP The emphasis of research in the RLE Integrated Photonic Devices and Materials group is the design, epitaxial growth, device fabrication and characterization of a number of photonic and opto-electronic structures and devices. The epitaxial growth of the heterostructures is performed in the laboratory consisting of two gaseous source epitaxy reactors
interconnected to several smaller chambers, which are used for sample introduction and in-situ surface
analysis. The facilities of the group features a state-of-the-art solid source, dual-reactor molecular beam epitaxy
system. The new system allows for the epitaxial growth of dilute nitrides and antimony-based films in addition to arsenide- and phosphide-based films. The system platens hold multiple 3" or 4" wafers, or a single 6" or 8" wafer. The system incorporates a low wobble manipulator that will enable in-situ feedback control of the epitaxial processes using optical sensors such as band edge absorption and spectroscopic
ellipsometry.
