“…However, while for GaAs selective deposition can be achieved by controlling the operating conditions such as pressure and temperature, the growth of AlAs is highly nonselective. To improve selectivity, either HCl [3][4][5] or chlorinated precursors (GaCl, AsCl 3 [6,7], DEGaCl and DEAlCl [8,9]) are added to the inlet mixture. The use of HCl allows good control of the Cl/III ratio, which cannot be easily achieved with chlorinated gallium or aluminum precursors.…”
