Abstract
A configuration of misfit dislocation dipoles is observed in a Ga0.5In0.5P heterostructure grown by solid-source molecular-beam epitaxy on GaAs. The dipole dislocations are mostly of 60° type, separated by ~3.5 nm. The dislocations are not produced by conventional lattice mismatch, rather, they could be the result of lateral compositional modulation in the Ga₀.₅In₀.₅P epilayer.
