The successful preparation of iron-doped semiinsulating InP by organometallic vapour-phase epitaxy (OMVPE) has been recently reported [1][2][3]. The epitaxial layers were of high structural quality and had excellent electrical properties. These studies indicate that transition metal doping using organometallic sources is indeed possible and consequently enables the preparation of a wide range of transition metal doped I I I -V semiconductors. To date, only irondoped InP has been prepared by OMVPE; however, there is potentially a number of other three-dimensional transition metal dopants for InP that are of both technological and scientific importance [4]. In this letter we report the preparation and characterization of manganese-doped InP OMVPE using an organometallic manganese source. Hall effect and photoluminescence measurements were used to assess the electrical and optical properties of the epitaxial layers.
