摘要：

By the molecular-beam epitaxial (MBE) growth of GaAs on [001]-mesa stripes patterned on GaAs(100) substrates, (110) facets were formed on the mesa edges defining (100)-(110) facet structures. The surface diffusion length of Ga adatoms along the [010] direction on the mesa stripes was obtained for a variety of growth conditions by in-situ scanning microprobe reflection high-energy electron diffraction (mu-RHEED). Using these values and the corresponding growth rate on the GaAs(110) facets, the diffusion length on the (110) plane was estimated. We found that the Ga diffusion length on the (110) plane is longer than that on the (100) and (111)B planes. The long diffusion length on the (110) plane is discussed in terms of the particular surface reconstruction on this plane.
