ABSTRACTWe have studied the development of a microscopically ridged [110] Morphology during (001) GaAs Molecular beam epitaxy, as a function of layer thickness and growth temperature. The ridge slopes are consistent with the [110] separation required to incorporate a majority of adatoms by step-flow growth. Thus step-flow can be a dominant growth mode even on nominally on-axis (singular) substrates. With increasing epilayer thickness, the ridge slopes, and surface step density, remain approximately constant, while the ridge spacings, and therefore roughness amplitude, increase steadily.

ABSTRACTThe transition temperature Tc for the AlAs growth to change from/to a nucleation mode and step-flow mode have been studied on vicinal GaAs substrates (A-surface and B-surface) in molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and atomic hydrogen-assisted MBE (H-MBE) using reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). The lowering of Tc was clearly observed in H-MBE compared to conventional MBE. For growth of AlAs on vicinal GaAs substrate in H-MBE, atomic H is thought to promote not only the re-evaporation of Al adatoms on the terrace, but also the incorporation of Al at the step edges, thereby facilitating a step-flow growth mode at a lower temperature than in MBE. The differences in the fundamental growth mode between on A-surface and B-surface have also been studies based on the differences in the atomic structure between the two substrates.

AbstractThe evolution of surface morphology of molecular-beam-epitaxy-grown GaAs (001) has been studied by scanning tunneling microscope. Images show that in the early stages of deposition the morphology oscillates between one -with twodimensional nucleation and coalescing islands, i.e. flat terraces. After the initial oscillatory regime, the system evolves to a dynamical steady state. This state is characterized by a constant step density. As such, the growth mode can be called a generalized step flow. Comparison with RHEED shows that there is a direct correspondence between the surface step density and the RHEED specular intensity. An increase in step density results in a decrease in specular intensity. Additionally, further deposition beyond 120 monolayers (up to 1450 monolayers) display a slowly increasing surface roughness.
