Abstract: The potential barrier height in planar-doped barrier structures is particularly sensitive to the concentration of background impurities present in the nominally undoped regions. MBE grown GaInAs lattice matched to InP typically has n-type background carrier concentrations in the 10**1**6 cm** minus **3 range. This high level can cause lowering of the barrier to near zero. By subjecting the InP substrates to a heat treatment process before growth in order to inhibit impurity outdiffusion higher purity GaInAs can be grown and planar-doped barrier devices with more reproducible characteristics are expected.
