A detailed investigation the GaInNAs growth by metalorganc vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) is performed in order to reduce the carbon background in the material. For this, the precursors , as well as the different growth parameters influence on crystal morphology, carbon background and the incorporation of different elements on the semiconductor material, are investigated. The temperature, the growth rate, the As/III ratio, the nitrogen content, and the different precursors were varied from one sample to another. Particularly, since some precursors were never used for this semiconductor material, initially, only GaAs was examined, later the GaInAs and the GaNAs ternary materials were grown, to finally obtain the GaInNAs. The samples characterization was used to assess materials quality, as well as the carbon background incorporation. Different characterization techniques such as High-Resolution X-Ray Diffraction (HR-XRD), Atomic Force Microscopy (AFM), Electrochemical Capacitance-Voltage (ECV) and In-Situ measurements were used to evaluate the effect of the epitaxial growth parameters on the quality of the obtained structures, as well as on the different elements incorporation in the semiconductor material. GaInNAs was successfully grown in the MOVPE reactor with particular precursors combinations. The relation between the high carbon level and the nitrogen amount in the crystal was confirmed, as well as the fact that carbon is supplied by methyl-groups of the precursors, especially TMGa, followed by TMIn. All measures to reduce carbon background incorporation were successful. The use of methyl group free III precursors significantly reduces the carbon background incorporation. Finally, solar cells were grown to evaluate the material in the device.
