ABSTRACTCrystal growth and surface diffusion have been studied in the Ag/Ge(lll) system using UHV-SEM based techniques, biassed secondary electron imaging (b-SEI), micro-AES and RHEED. Ag was deposited through and past a mask of holes held close to the substrate at 300<Td< 775K. Under certain conditions, the Ag patches were observed to split into two regions corresponding to the √3×√3R30° (hereafter √3) and a lower coverage 4×4 structure, each of which were easily observable using b-SEI. These patch widths were measured as a function of Td, and of annealing times at temperatures Ta, and effective diffusion coefficents extracted. The diffusion length of adatoms over the 4×4 structure is larger than that over the √3 structure. These observations are modelled using kinetic rate equations, and the results are compared with previous studies of Ag/Si(111). We find that energies characterising processes on top of the √3 layers of both systems are very similar, but that processes involved in the formation of the layers are quite different. The coverage of the √3 Ag/Ge(111) layer is close to 1 ML for all Td studied, unlike √3 Ag/Si(111). where it depends on deposition and annealing conditions.

ABSTRACTGaAs films grown on exact (111) substrates in the reconstruction regime always show facets. We have studied the surfaces of these films with an atomic force microscope. The facets are composed of vicinal surfaces which are tilted by small angles (∼ 2°) from the exact (111) plane. From the geometry of the facet, average displacement of adatoms is calculated. The results indicate that the diffusion length under the growth condition is more than 0.2 μm.
