摘要
We examined the epitaxial growth of Ge1-xSnx thin film with x similar to 0.50 on GaSb(111) substrate using a low-temperature MBE. X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering spectroscopy analyses revealed that the Ge1-xSnx thin film with x similar to 0.50 with no strain was successfully grown on GaSb(111). Furthermore, in the Raman analysis, a sharper Ge-Sn peak compared to Ge-Ge and Sn-Sn peaks was clearly observed and showed an improved thermal stability than Ge1-xSnx with a smaller Sn composition. This suggests that the Ge1-xSnx with x similar to 0.50 would have an ordered Ge-Sn bonding like a zinc blend system, that is significantly different from Si1-xGex case.
