We achieved the HgCdTe(111)B layer with a specular surface and high structural quality, which was the candidate material for IRFPA application, on GaAs(100) by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy. To realize such superior layers, we studied the structure and surface morphology of CdTe and HgCdTe(111)B with concerning the growth mechanism. We found twins in CdTe were originated both at the CdTe-GaAs interface and during the subsequent CdTe growth. These twins could be eliminated by using misoriented substrates and adjusting the VI/II ratio conditions. Suitable conditions for suppressing twins also improved the CdTe surface morphology. We clarified the CdTe crystal perfection was improved effectively by decreasing the growth rate. This attractive CdTe buffer was necessary for a twin-free HgCdTe(111)B layer whose dislocation density was small. We obtained HgCdTe layers with good structural quality and smooth surface morphology under the large VI/II ratio condition, similar to the case of CdTe growth.
