ABSTRACTThe topmost atoms of TiO2 - terminated SrTiO3(001) annealed at temperatures between room temperature and 800°C in ultra high vacuum (UHV), have been studied by means of in-situ coaxial impact collision ion scattering spectroscopy (CAICISS). Both time-of-flight spectra at the incident angle of 45.0°C along [ 100] azimuth and of 35.3°C along [110] azimuth revealed Ti and weak O peaks and no Sr peak at 150°C, which means that the topmost layer at 150°C is terminated by TiCh-plane, completely. On the other hand, as increasing the substrate temperature, Sr peak began to appear above 400°C. This Sr peak intensity from both directions was drastically increased with elevating the substrate temperature. This indicates that the topmost O and Ti atoms desorb from the surface at the higher substrate temperature. The ratio Sr/Ti corresponds to the amount of the topmost oxygen or titanium vacancies due to the desorption. It was found that 40 % of the topmost oxygen atoms and 32% of the topmost titanium atoms desorb from TiO2-terminated SrTiO3(001) surface at 800°C. The activation energies for oxygen and titanium desorption were 0.28eV and 0.40eV, respectively.

AbstractWe have performed a detailed investigation of the molecular beam epitaxial (MBE) growth and characterization of InN nanowires spontaneously formed on Si(111) substrates under nitrogen rich conditions. Controlled epitaxial growth of InN nanowires (NWs) has been demonstrated by using an in situ deposited thin (˜ 0.5 nm) In seeding layer prior to the initiation of growth. By applying this technique, we have achieved non-tapered epitaxial InN NWs that are relatively free of dislocations and stacking faults. Such InN NW ensembles display strong photoluminescence (PL) at room temperature and considerably reduced spectral broadening, with very narrow spectral linewidths of 22 and 40 meV at 77 K and 300 K, respectively.

AbstractPd deposits on Ni(111) have been studied by low energy ion scattering spectroscopy. We found that two different types of epitaxial growth exist: Pd[11 2]//Ni[11 2] and Pd[11 2]//Ni[11 2] at substrate temperature of 300 K. The Pd(111) planes grow as mixed domains of 50 % each. Surface alloying of the Pd-Ni system was confirmed for deposition at 300 K in which Pd atoms displace first-layer Ni atoms, with an outward displacement of 0.4 Å with respect to first layer Ni atoms.

AbstractReactions between 1.5 monolayer(ML) Fe deposited on Si(001)-2 × 1 and -dihydride surfaces were studied in situ by reflection high-energy electron diffraction and time-of-flight ion scattering spectrometry with the use of 25 keV H ions. The reactions between Fe and Si which were successively deposited on Si(001)-dihydride surface were also studied. After the room temperature deposition Fe reacted with Si(001)-2 × 1 substrate resulting in the formation of polycrystalline Fe5Si3. By annealing to 560∼650°C composite heteroepitaxial layer of both type A and type B β -FeSi2 was formed. On the dihydride surface polycrystalline Fe was observed after 1.5ML Fe deposition at room temperature, and reaction between Fe and Si(001)-dihydride surface is not likely at room temperature. We observed 3D rough surface when we deposited only Fe layer on the dihydride surface and annealed above 700°C. The hydrogen termination of Si(001) surface prevents the deposited Fe from diffusing into the substrate below 500°C, however the annealing above 710°C leads to the diffusion. We obtained 2D ordered surface, which showed 3 × 3 RHEED pattern as referenced to the primitive unreconstructed Si(O01) surface net, when we deposited 2.5ML Fe and 5.8ML Si successively onto Si(001)-dihydride surface and annealed to 470°C.
