摘要
In this paper we show that simple pre-epitaxial wet chemical treatment of GaAs substrates in Na,S-water solutions allows one to grow reproducibly by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) ZnSe-based structures with significantly lowered stacking fault (SF) density down to similar to 3 x 10(5) cm(-2). This defect density is comparable with that obtained on the (2 x 4)As-stabilized surfaces of GaAs MBE grown buffer layer at the same ZnSe growth initiation procedure. This effect is shown to be achieved by development of optimized passivating and annealing procedures, which produce oxygen and gallium-free GaAs surface terminated with As or S dimmers.
