Abstract

We developed GaAs heteroepitaxy on a Si substrate by metalorganio vapor phase epitaxy (MOVPE) using tertiarybutylarsine (TBAs). When we preheated Si at 1000ºC in the atmosphere including TBAs, a carbide layer was formed on the Si surface. This led to polycrystalline GaAs growth. By carrying out high-temperature preheating in an H2 -only atmosphere and supplying TBAs after the preheating, we have successfully grown single-crystal GaAs with a mirror surface in a process completely free of AsH3.
