摘要
We study molecular beam epitaxial growth and structural properties of intermetallic compound CoAl on AlAs/GaAs III-V semiconductors, and overgrowth of GaAs/AlAs on very thin CoAl films. By RHEED and X-ray measurements, we investigate the dependence of crystallinity of Co1-xAl(x) epitaxial layers on MBE growth conditions. It is found that the single crystalline CoAl with the epitaxial orientation of CoAl(001)[110] on AlAs(001)[110]/GaAs can be obtained when the Al composition x is 0.5 and growth temperature T(s) is 350-degrees-C. Furthermore, we grow a GaAs/AlAs/CoAl/AlAs/GaAs metal semiconductor heterostructure, in which a very thin CoAl layer is buried in III-V semiconductors. Electrically continuous film with the CoAl thickness of 50 angstrom was obtained. Transmission electron microscopy shows atomically smooth and abrupt metal/semiconductor interfaces.
