ABSTRACTTwo dimensional growth of GaAs on silicon has been achieved by modulation molecular beam epitaxy (where the arsenic beam is pulsed) with laser assistance at 308 nm (LAMBE). Photoconductive, low doping concentration layers were utilized for metal-semiconductormetal photodetectors which were evaluated at 840 nm.

ABSTRACTEpitaxial growth of quaternary AlGalnN compounds by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy has been demonstrated. Two-dimensional growth is achieved under In excess, with a monolayer of In segregating at the growth front. The maximum In incorporation is significantly affected by the substrate temperature and the Al mole fraction of the alloy. This behavior has been attributed to the enhancement of In segregation due to the high binding energy of A1N compared to InN and GaN.

AbstractThe evolution of surface roughness with increasing thickness of (100) InP layersgrown by metalorganic molecular beam epitaxy has been observed by scanningforce microscopy. The process of roughening gives rise to periodic elongatedfeatures on the surface aligned in the [011] direction, reflecting the surfaceanisotropy. The morphology eventually evolves to a grain-like surface. Theroughening is dependent on both the group III and V flux, and the growthtemperature, indicating that this phenomenon is kinetically controlled by surfacediffusion activation. For each set of parameters chosen for the growth, there is aminimum temperature where smooth, two-dimensional growth can be obtained.Below that temperature the roughening shows two distinct power law regimesdependent on the epitaxial layer thickness.
