Patent ID: 11688996

Abstract:
A semiconductor device includes a substrate comprising a layer made of Ge and a semiconductor multilayer structure grown on the layer made of Ge. The semiconductor multilayer structure includes at least one first layer comprising a material selected from a group consisting of AlxGa1-xAs, AlxGa1-x-yInyAs, AlxGa1-x-yInyAs1-zPz, AlxGa1-x-yInyAs1-zNz, and AlxGa1-x-yInyAs1-z-cNzPc, AlxGa1-x-yInyAs1-z-cNzSbc, and AlxGa1-x-yInyAs1-z-cPzSbc, wherein for any material a sum of the contents of all group-III elements equals 1 and a sum of the contents of all group-V elements equals 1. The semiconductor multilayer structure also includes at least one second layer comprising a material selected from a group consisting of GaInAsNSb, GaInAsN, AlGaInAsNSb, AlGaInAsN, GaAs, GaInAs, GaInAsSb, GaInNSb, GaInP, GaInPNSb, GaInPSb, GaInPN, AlInP, AlInPNSb, AlInPN, AlInPSb, AlGaInP, AlGaInPNSb, AlGaInPN, AlGaInPSb, GaInAsP, GaInAsPNSb, GaInAsPN, GaInAsPSb, GaAsP, GaAsPNSb, GaAsPN, GaAsPSb, AlGaInAs and AlGaAs.
