Abstract

ABSTRACTLateral compositional graded (GaAs)1-x(Si2)x alloys were deposited on GaAs substrates in a III-V molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) chamber equipped with a electron-beam Si evaporation source. Single crystal GaAs-Si alloys were formed when the deposition temperature was 600°C or higher. The alloys were characterized by Energy Dispersive X-ray Spectroscopy (EDS), Raman scattering measurement and cross-sectional Transmission Electron Microscopy (XTEM). Dislocation-free (GaAs)1-x(Si2)x films of up to x = 0.07 were deposited. For alloys with x between 0.15 < < 0.25, the morphology deteriorates and a high density of stacking faults and micro-twins were observed.
