摘要
We describe the growth characteristics of a type of II-VI/III-V heterostructure, (Cd,Mn)Se/InAs, which shows promise for application in spintronics. We used a variety of approaches for growing the heterostructure, and found that a high epilayer quality could be obtained by incorporation of a thin ZnTe buffer layer between the two materials.
