Secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) has been used to determine depth profiles of thin boron nitride films adapted as insulators in metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) devices. The negative secondary ion detection has been chosen to overcome the sample surface charging due to Ar+ primary ion beam bombardment and to determine the elemental distribution without an electron flood gun treatment. Thin boron nitride films of 20-200 nm thickness were obtained by the radiofrequency plasma-assisted chemical vapour deposition method on Si-substrate with various flows of the gas source. The effect of silicon diffusion from the substrate into the insulator on nitrogen detection due to multiply charged Si ion mass interferences is observed. In order to entirely eliminate the silicon contribution to nitrogen signal in SIMS, we propose to produce BN film on two substrates (e.g., Si and GaAs) simultaneously and then to determine the nitrogen profile. The data obtained for MIS devices formed by covering the BN film with Al layer reveal also Al presence in the insulating film.

Cathodoluminescence (CL) technique is applied for evaluation of in-depth and in-plane variations of light emission from semiconductor heterostructures, including laser diode structures. Light emission properties of heteroepitaxial and heteroepitaxial structures, are studied. We demonstrate possibility of in-depth profiling of complicated multi quantum well structures, which allows us to evaluate light emission characteristics from different regions of, e.g., laser structures. Due to this property of the CL, we can evaluate interconnections between structural quality of the samples and light emission characteristics. Stimulated emission under electron bean pumping is achieved in a conventional CL, set up for selected heterostructures. Thereshold currents for stimulated emission are evaluated from the CL investigations. We demonstrate that potential fluctuations are not fully screened in the active regions of laser structures, even at large excitation densities.
