摘要
We have investigated the initial growth mechanism of MnAs on GaAs(001)-c(4 x 4)alpha reconstructed surfaces. We found that the MnAs deposition on GaAs(001)-c(4 x 4)alpha surface promotes to break the Ga-As asymmetric dimers and modulates the dimer characteristics to symmetric As-As dimer formation on the surfaces. The Ga atoms consisting of c(4 x 4)alpha reconstructed surface are contributed to the anomaly in the surface coverage during the MnAs growth. We also found that 1 ML zinc-blende-type layer is realized by the MnAs growth and then hexagonal NiAs-type MnAs islands are formed on the surface. (C) 2007 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
