Notes:
The defect structure of optically degraded ZnCdSe quantum wells was investigated using transmission electron microscopy. The defects were composed of the dislocation dipoles with a Burgers vector of b=−(a/2)[101] inclined at 45° to the (001) plane. The dislocation dipoles consist of two segments aligned along the [11¯0] direction and the [120] direction. The [11¯0] dipole segments lying in the (111¯) plane were developed by the recombination-enhanced dislocation glide process, while the [1¯2¯0] dipole segments lying in the (2¯11) plane were developed by the recombination-enhanced dislocation climb process. Both processes operate simultaneously. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
