摘要: InP thin films have been grown on InP/Si substrate by epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG). The nature, origin and filtering of extended defects in ELOG layers from single double openings SiO2 mask investigated. Whereas occasionally exhibit threading dislocations (TDs) at certain points coalescence, TDs are completely absent openings. Furthermore, stacking faults (SFs) observed both opening types originate not but possibly formation during early stages or simply propagate the seed layer through A model describing their propagation is devised applied to existent conditions, showing that SFs can effectively be filtered under conditions. identical patterns contained no defects, indicating defect-forming mechanism any case inherent itself.
