We report the growth by molecular beam epitaxy of GaBixAs1−x epilayers on (311)B GaAs substrates. We use high-resolution x-ray diffraction (HRXRD), transmission electron microscopy, and Z-contrast imaging to characterize the structural properties of the as-grown material. We find that the incorporation of Bi into the GaBiAs alloy, as determined by HRXRD, is sizably larger in the (311)B epilayers than in (001) epilayers, giving rise to reduced band-gap energies as obtained by optical transmission spectroscopy.
