Abstract

Photoreflectance (PR) has been measured to investigate the characterization of the $Al_{0.20}Ga_{0.80}As$/GaAs heterostructures. In the PR spectrum, the 'C' peak is confirmed as the carbon defect with residual impurity originating from the growth process. After annealing, binding energy is relatively weak with As evaporation being done to increase Ga. Also obtained is the electric field value according to annealing temperature ($300{\sim}800^{\circ}C$).
