Effect of substrate misorientation on the properties of $p$-HEMT GaAs-based nanoheterostructures formed during MOCVD epitaxy

As one of the approaches to improve $p$-HEMT, we studied the effect of misorientation of GaAs substrates on the surface morphology, structure, and electrical properties of pseudomorphic heterostructures, as well as the parameters of transistors based on them. In a single technological cycle, heterostructures were formed on vicinal substrates with (100) orientation and misoriented by 2$^\circ$ to (110) by the method of MOCVD (MOCVD) in a single technological cycle. It has been established that on misoriented substrates, the growth of structurally consistent and stressed epitaxial layers occurs according to a layered-step mechanism with the formation of macrosteps. On vicinal substrates, the formation of monatomic growth steps was observed. The comparative characteristics of $p$-HEMT obtained using two types of substrates are considered.
