Abstract

Classical Bragg reflection computation is extended from the transparent wavelength region of GaAs to the 0.6-0.9 μm wavelength range. Our model includes (i) absorption effects, (ii) refractive index changes around the bandgap of both materials, and (iii) air Ga1-xAlxAs interface reflection. Reflection measures are made and compared with the results of the model. Actual thickness and Al atomic fractions of layers are being determined by double X-ray diffraction (DXD) technique. Good agreement between theory and experiment is observed.
