Abstract
We present Kinetic Lattice Monte Carlo (KLMC) simulations of Ge deposition onto a reconstructed Si (100) surface. In addition to the anisotropy brought on by surface reconstruction, we take into account the role of the exchange of Ge with Si atoms in the substrate and how it effects the interface between the materials. One method of controlling the resulting structures from the growth process is to use a pre-patterned substrate. We present results where the initial structure is a grid pattern. The KLMC simulations in this case yield Ge-Si stripes, that result largely from the anisotropy generated from the surface reconstruction.
