Abstract: Abstract Metalorgan ic vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) is used to grow unicompositional quantum-well (QW) structures, in which the QW and barrier layers are composed of ordered and disordered GaInP, respectively. Transmission electron dark-field micrographs reveal abrupt interfaces between highly ordered QWs and disordered barriers, with no evidence of defect formation. Low-temperature photoluminescence from the structures exhibits relatively broad emission peaks, with emission energy increasing with decreasing QW thickness. The dependence of emission energy on well thickness can be described by a finite square well model only when a type-II band alignment is taken for the heterostructure, in which the conduction band edge of the ordered GaInP QW lies about 135–150 meV below that of the disordered barrier material. These results demonstrate a high degree of control over the ordering process in MOVPE, such that quantum size effects can be realized solely through disorder-order phenomena. Further, the data provide strong support for a type-II (spatially indirect) recombination transition between ordered and disordered GaInP.
