摘要: Abstract The interplay between transport and kinetics in selective-area growth (SAG) of compound semiconductors is discussed. A thin-film model describing reactants across the boundary layer above surface developed. dimensionless Damkohler number ( Da ) quantitatively determines whether planar (blanket) deposition a transport-limited, reaction-rate-limited, or intermediate operating regime. Reactant profiles within rotating-disk reactor rates predicted by agree very well with numerically exact calculations. efficiency SAG was found to be strong function both pattern fill-factor θ ). extended take into account lowering “effective rate constant” (averaged over exposed masked zones). It that product θDa governs transition kinetic control process. Predictions analytical were compared 2-D calculations experimental results from InGaAs, InP, GaN SAG. simple theory appears provide an excellent qualitative quantitative description effects
