Surface Reconstruction of MBE-Grown GeXSi1−x on Si(111)
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 26 February 2011
Abstract
Surface reconstruction during the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of GexSi1−x ( x = 0.2 - 1.0 ) film on Si(111) was studied using reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED). A series of reconstruction pattern transitions was observed due to the formation of strain layer and its relaxation. The critical thickness obtained using the thickness of the GexSil-x film at the transition of the reconstruction pattern agrees well with the previously reported values. The strain dependence of RHEED patterns for GexSi1−x film was substantiated by Raman scattering.
