摘要
High quality, completely relaxed Ge films have been grown on Si(111) using Sb as surfactant at the initial stage of growth. After desorbing the surface Sb layer, cusplike reflection high-energy electron diffraction intensity oscillations indicated excellent Ge layer-by-layer epitaxy. High resolution x-ray diffraction analysis showed a very high crystalline quality and well resolved thickness fringes consistent with a flat relaxed Ge layer. Chemical preferential etching experiments revealed a defect density of down to approximately 3 X 10(4) cm-2.
