AlGaAsSb and AlGaAs films as thick as 1 μm with Al content as high as 60% were successfully grown by low-temperature (200 °C) MBE. To overcome the well-known problem of growth disruption due to a high aluminum content and a low growth temperature, we applied intermittent growth with the temperature elevation to smooth out the emerging roughness of the growth front. Post-growth annealing of the obtained material allowed us to form a developed system of As or AsSb nanoinclusions, which occupy 0.3–0.6% of the material volume. While the As nanoinclusions are optically inactive, the AsSb nanoinclusions provide a strong optical absorption near the band edge of the semiconductor matrix due to the Fröhlich plasmon resonance. Owing to the wider bandgap of the grown Al0.6Ga0.4As0.97Sb0.03 compound, we have expanded the spectral range available for studying the Fröhlich plasmon resonance. The grown metamaterial represents an optically active medium of which the formation process is completely compatible with the epitaxial growth technology of semiconductors.
