ABSTRACTIn this paper we examine the role of strain and growth kinetics on the growth modes in pseudomorphic growth. Regimes below critical thickness and above critical thickness are examined. Based on atomistic modelling and in-situ RHEED and STM studies we show that a competition between surface chemical energy and strain energy is shown to lead to 3-dimensional blend mode for high strain pseudomorphy. Consequences for dislocation generation are discussed.

AbstractThe morphology of Si(001) after carbon deposition of 0.05 to 0.11 monolayers (ML) was investigated in situ by ultrahigh vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy (UHV-STM). The carbon induces a c(4×4)-reconstruction of the surface. In addition, carbon increases the surface roughness compared to clean Si(001) (2×1). In a second step, the influence of the carbon induced restructuring on Ge-island nucleation was investigated. The 3D-growth sets in at considerably lower Ge coverage compared to the clean Si(001) (2×1) surface. This leads to a high density of small though irregularly shaped dots, consisting of stepped terraces, already at 2.5 ML Ge. Increasing the Ge-coverage beyond the critical thickness for facet formation, the dots show { 105 }- facets well known from Ge-clusters on bare Si(001) (2×1). However, they are flat on top with a (001)-facet showing the typical buckled Ge rows and missing dimers. This indicates that the compressive strain is not fully relaxed in these hut clusters.
