Abstract
In order to measure a small amount and spatial variation of birefringence induced by residual strains in III-V compound materials, we have developed a high-sensitivity high-spatial-resolution computer-controlled scanning infrared polariscope. Several characterization results on commercial GaAs wafers are presented to demonstrate its performance. It is found that local strain fields accompanied by crystal defects such as slip dislocations, lineages, inclusions, and voids can be observed.
