ABSTRACTUsing in situ, real-time reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED), we have measured the evolution of Ge (001) surface morphology during simultaneous molecular beam epitaxy and Ar ion beam bombardment. Surprisingly, low-energy Ar ions during growth tend to smoothen the surface. Bombardment by the ion beam without growth roughens the surface, but the surface can be reversibly smoothened by restoring the growth beam. We have measured the effect of such “ion beam growth smoothening” above and below the critical temperature for intrinsic growth roughening. At all measured growth temperatures the surface initially smoothens, but below the critical roughening temperature the final surface morphology is rough whereas above this temperature the final morphology is smooth.

AbstractA combined ion beam and molecular beam epitaxy (CIBMBE) method was applied for the deposition of a Ge1-xCx alloy on Si(100) using a low-energy ( 50 – 100 eV ) C+ ion beam and a Ge molecular beam. Metastable Ge1-xCx solid solutions were formed up to x = 0.047, and the CIBMBE method was shown to have a very high potential to grow metastable Ge1-x,Cx alloys. It was also revealed that the sticking coefficient of C+ ions into Ge was ∼28% for Ei, = 100 eV and ∼18% for Ei = 50 eV. Structural characterization suggests that the deposited films are single crystals grown epitaxially on the substrate with twins on {111} planes. Characterization of lattice dynamics using Raman spectroscopy suggested that the deposited layers have a small amount of ion irradiation damage.

AbstractWe have developed successfully the combined ion beam and molecular beam epitaxy (CIBMBE) system with a newly designed Knudsen cell for Si effusion. The CIBMBE system was applied to the epitaxial growth of Sil., Cx alloy thin films on Si using low-energy ( 100 – 300 eV ) C+ ion beam. Preliminary results on the characterization of the deposited films suggest high potential and reliability of the new Knudsen cell for Si effusion, as well as high ability of the CIBMBE method to produce thermally non-equilibrium materials. In addition, they indicate that the value of x decreases with increasing IC, which suggests that the selective sputtering for deposited C atoms by incident C+ ion beams takes place during CIBMBE processing. Precipitates of β-SiC were also found to be formed in the deposited films, whose amount was observed to increase with increasing IC.
