ABSTRACTZnSe:Cl epilayers have been grown on (100) GaAs by MBE using a Zn to Se beam flux ratio of 2:1 and substrate temperatures as low as 225 °C. The ZnSe:Cl epilayers are highly conducting and exhibit bright blue-violet edge luminescence at 300 K. A mobility of 2480 cm2 /V-s at 40 K was measured for an n-type ZnSe:CI film that was Cl-doped to ∼2.3×1017 cm−3 and for which a compensation ratio (NA/ND) of ∼3% was calculated. Carrier concentrations as large as 6.7×1018cm−3 were obtained by increasing the temperature of the MBE oven containing the C1 dopant.

ABSTRACTAmmonia as nitrogen precursor has been used to grow III-V nitrides by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on c-plane sapphire substrates. The efficiency of NH3 has been evaluated allowing the determination of the actual V/III flux ratio used during the GaN growth. The effects of the V/III ratio variation on the GaN layer properties have been investigated by photoluminescence (PL), Hall measurements, atomic force microscopy (AFM), and secondary ion mass spectroscopy (SIMS). It is found that a high V/III ratio leads to the best material quality. Optimized GaN thick buffer layers have been used to grow GaN/AlGaN quantum well (QW) heterostructures. Their PL spectra exhibit well resolved emission peaks for QW thicknesses varying from 3 to 15 monolayers. From the variation of the QW energies as a function of well width, a piezoelectric field of 450 kV/cm is deduced.

ABSTRACTThe stability of CoSi2/Si interfaces was examined in this study using columnar suicide structures grown on (111) Si substrates. In the first set of experiments, Co and Si were co-deposited (1:7 flux ratio) using molecular beam epitaxy at 800°C and the resulting columnar suicide layer was capped by epitaxial Si. Deposition of Co on the surface of the Si capping layer at 800°C results in the growth of the buried suicide columns. The buried columns grow by subsurface diffusion of the deposited Co, suppressing the formation of surface islands of CoSi2. The columns' sidewalls appear to be less stable than the top and bottom interfaces, resulting in preferential lateral growth and ultimately in the coalescence of the columns to form a continuous buried CoSi2 layer.In the second set of experiments, annealing of a 250nm-thick buried columnar layer at 1000°C under a 100nm-thick Si capping layer results in the formation of a surface layer of CoSi2 with a reduction in the sizes of the CoSi2 columns. For a sample having a thicker (500nm) Si capping layer the annealing leads to Ostwald ripening producing buried equiaxed columns. The' high CoSi2/Si interfacial strain could provide the driving force for the observed behavior of the buried columns under high-temperature annealing.
