摘要
Generation of extra facets on ridge-type triangles with (001)-, (110)-, and (201)-related equivalent slopes on GaAs (111) A substrates and stripes running in the [(1) over bar 10], [110], and [100] directions on (001) substrates during molecular beam epitaxy of GaAs/AlGaAs multilayers was investigated. By investigating local variation in layer thickness in the regions adjacent to extra (114)A, (110), and ((111) over bar)B facets common to the (111)A and (001) patterned substrates and extra facets specific to the respective substrates and growth rates of the facets relative to the growth rate on the substrate plane, the orientation-dependent Ga surface diffusion length, lambda(Ga), was elucidated as lambda(Ga)(001)approximate to lambda(Ga)((113) over bar)B<{lambda(Ga)((111) over bar)B, lambda(Ga)((331) over bar)B, lambda(Ga)(013), lambda(Ga)(113)A}<lambda Ga(159)approximate to lambda(Ga)(114)A approximate to lambda(Ga)(111)A<lambda(Ga)(110). That is, lambda(Ga) increases in the order of the (001), (111)B-related, (111)A-related, and (110) surfaces.
