摘要
The incorporation coefficients of As-2 and As-4, Obtained from reflection high-energy electron diffraction intensity oscillations in the As-limited growth regime, are compared for the growth of GaAs on (001), (110), and (111)A surfaces by molecular beam epitaxy, The kinetic results are remarkably similar for (110) and (111)A, but very different from those obtained on (001). The incorporation coefficients decrease with increasing temperature for all three surfaces, with the effect being much more dramatic on (110) and (111) A. The low-and temperature-dependent incorporation coefficients on (110) and (111)A explain the need for high As:Ca flux ratios and low substrate temperatures in the preparation of high-quality GaAs epitaxial layers.
