Description

The initial growth stage of GaAs on Si has been characterized in situ by coaxial impact-collision ion scattering spectroscopy (CAICISS). The behavior of As atoms on the Si surface and at the step sites is analyzed. The results of analysis on the initial growth stage strongly suggest that the three-dimensional island growth of GaAs on Si occurs even in 1-monolayer (ML) GaAs growth. (author)
