We study the effect of hydrogen incorporation on the lattice properties of In xGa12xAs12yNy /GaAs heterostructures. The band gap widening observed in the photoluminescence spectra of hydrogenated GaAs12yNy and InxGa12xAs12yNy is accompanied by a lattice expansion along the growth direction, as measured by x-ray diffraction. At the same time, far-infrared spectroscopy reveals that a Ga-N local vibrational mode at ;472 cm 21 disappears upon hydrogen irradiation. All these effects are reversed upon hydrogen removal from the hydrogenated samples by thermal annealing. Finally, first-principles calculations indicate that a same dihydrogen complex is responsible for both the band gap reopening and the lattice expansion of hydrogenated InxGa12xAs12yNy .
