摘要
Indium phosphide was deposited on InP(111)A substrates by metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy. Then, the surface was characterized by scanning tunneling microscopy, low-energy electron diffraction, and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Two reconstructions were observed: the (2x2) and the (root3xroot3)R30degrees with phosphorus coverages of 0.25 and 1.00+/-0.05 ML (monolayers), respectively. The (2x2) was found to adopt an indium-vacancy structure such as that observed on the (2x2) phase of GaAs (111)A. The (root3xroot3)R30degrees reconstruction has not been seen previously on III/V semiconductor surfaces. The experimental evidence suggests that this surface is terminated with a complete layer of phosphorus trimers.
