摘要：

Very-low-energy (almost-equal-to 28 eV), high-flux (almost-equal-to 0.4 mA/cm2) Ar-ion irradiation during molecular-beam epitaxy changed the nucleation or GaAs on Si(100) from Stranski-Krastanov to a mechanism approaching layer-by-layer growth. While three-dimensional island nucleation was eliminated, the growth surface exhibited low-amplitude undulations. The results are explained by ion-induced removal of atoms from stable 3D islands, which suppressed 3D island nucleation.
