Characterization of GaAs grown by molecular beam epitaxy on vicinal Ge„100... substrates

چکیده
In this article we investigate the growth of GaAs on two different vicinal surfaces of Ge ~100!, cut 6° off the ~100! plane toward the ~110! plane or toward the ~111! plane. Both substrates exhibit evidence of a regular array of double steps. Ge substrates and GaAs films are characterized with low energy electron diffraction, low temperature photoluminescence, scanning tunneling microscopy, electron channeling, and scanning electron microscopy. GaAs grown on wafers cut toward the ~111! plane exhibits high quality as compared to reference GaAs samples, whereas GaAs grown on wafers cut toward the ~110! plane displays clear evidence of three-dimensional growth and low crystallinity. © 2004 American Vacuum Society. @DOI: 10.1116/1.1774203#

Characteristic of P-type AlAs/GaAs Bragg Mirrors Grown by MBE on (100) and (311)A Oriented Substrates
P-type GaAs/AlAs distributed Bragg mirrors have been grown using molecular beam epitaxy on (100) and (311)A GaAs substrates in a similar conditions. A comparison of I-V measurements shows that the resistance of the ungraded mirrors grown on the (311)A substrate is 35 times lower than those grown on the (100) substrate with similar structure. The effective barrier heights for both (311 )A and (1...

متن کاملStructural Properties of GaN Films Grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy on Singular and Vicinal 6H-SiC(0001)
Gallium nitride films are grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on 6HSiC(0001) substrates with no miscut and with 3.5° miscuts in both the [1 1 00] and [11 2 0] directions. The hydrogen-etched substrates display straight or chevron shaped steps, respectively, and the same morphology is observed on the GaN films. X-ray rocking curves display substantially reduced width for films ...

Electron cyclotron resonance-metalorganic molecular beam epitaxy has been used to deposit GaN and GaAsxN [_ x layers on various substrates. This paper will report on the structural characterization of this material, as measured by x-ray diffraction and cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy. GaAsxN1x layers grown on GaAs appear to be cubic while those grown on GaP are surprisingly hex...
