Unlike the traditional tetragonal distortion approach strain due to the lattice mismatch is spontaneously relieved at the heterointerface in this growth. The complete and instantaneous strain relief at the GaSb GaAs interface is achieved by the formation of a two-dimensional Lomer dislocation network comprising of pure-edge 90 dislocations along both 110 and 1-10 . In the present analysis structural properties of GaSb deposited using both IMF and non-IMF growths are compared. Moire fringe patterns along with X-ray diffraction measure the long-range uniformity and strain relaxation of the IMF samples. The proof for the existence of the IMF array and low threading dislocation density is provided with the help of transmission electron micrographs for the GaSb epitaxial layer. Our results indicate that the IMF-grown GaSb is completely A. Jallipalli H D. L.
