摘要: Transmission electron microscope studies were made of CuPt‐type ordering in molecular beam epitaxial InAsySb1−y natural strained layer superlattices and homogeneous layers grown at temperatures the range 295–470 °C. Ordering occurs with a maximum growth temperature 370–400 °C, individual (111) ordered domains up to 10 nm size are present, there is modulation periodicity 3 d110 within layers, where (110) lattice spacing. The latter correlates [2×3] atomic surface reconstruction present during growth.
