摘要: GaAs is grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on composite GaAs-SiO2 nucleation layers fabricated Si substrates. The surface (CS) formed an initial deposition of islands MBE, followed oxidation the bare regions surrounding islands. performed at 265°C in afterglow a microwave induced plasma. fabrication layer compatible with process. growth CS's to study seeded lateral overgrowth SiO2. We find single crystal SiO2 up 50 nm wide. On large density twins present. seeds are not pseudomorphic and misfit dislocation segments constitute source threading defects. potential technique for GaAs-on-Si improvement discussed.
