摘要
The growth process and morphology of three-dimensional GaSb islands grown on a Ga/Si(111)-root 3 x root 3 reconstructed surface have been studied by ultrahigh-vacuum scanning tunneling microscopy and non-contact atomic force microscopy. Faceted GaSb islands with a density of 10(11) cm(-2) are formed on Ga/Si(111) in multilayer growth at 350 degrees C. Hexagonal-and pyramid-shaped islands are formed at 400 degrees C. Dome-shaped islands, which are similar to the islands grown on clean Si(111), are only formed at 450 degrees C. The growth morphology of GaSb islands varies depending on the atomic species terminated on Si(111) and the growth temperature. (C) 2013 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim
