摘要

We present a correlative study of structural and optical properties of natural defects in planar semiconductor microcavities grown by molecular beam epitaxy, which are showing a localized polariton spectrum as reported in Zajac et al. [Phys. Rev. B 85, 165309 (2012)]. The three-dimensional spatial structure of" the defects was studied using combined focused ion beam (FIB) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). We find that the defects originate from a local increase of a GaAs layer thickness. Modulation heights of up to 140 nm for oval defects and 90 nm for round defects are found, while the lateral extension is about 2 μm for oval and 4 μm for round defects. The GaAs thickness increase is attributed to a Ga droplet deposited during growth due to Ga cell spitting. Following the droplet deposition, the thickness modulation expands laterally while reducing its height, yielding oval to round mounds of the interfaces and the surface. With increasing growth temperature, the ellipticity of the mounds is decreasing and their size is increasing. This suggests thai the expansion is related to the surface mobility of Ga. Which, with increasing temperature, is increasing and reducing its anisotropy between the [110] and [110] crystallographic directions. Comprehensive data consisting of surface profiles of defects measured using differential interference contrast microscopy, volume information obtained using F1B/SEM, and characterization of the resulting confined polariton spectrum are presented.
