Abstract
A semiconductor substrate (1) of GaAs with a semiconductor layer sequence (2) applied on top. The semiconductor layer sequence (2) contains a plurality of semiconductor layers (3, 4, 5, 6, 7) of Al1−yGayAs1−xPx with 0≦x≦1 and 0≦y≦1, the phosphorus component x in a number of the semiconductor layers respectively being greater than in a neighboring semiconductor layer lying thereunder in the direction of growth. Such a semiconductor substrate may be advantageously used as a quasi-substrate substrate (8) for growing further semiconductor layers (28) which have a smaller lattice constant than GaAs.
