摘要
Reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements were used to investigate the dependences of the formation process and the strain on the As/In ratio and the substrate temperature of InAs quantum dots (QDs) grown on GaAs Substrates by using molecular beam epitaxy. The thickness of the InAs wetting layer and the shape and the size of the InAs QDs were significantly affected by the As/In ratio and the substrate temperature. The strains in the InAs layer and the GaAs substrate were studied by using RHEED patterns. The magnitude in strain of the InAs QDs formed at a low Substrate temperature was larger than that in InAs QDs grown at high substrate temperature. The present results can help to improve the understanding of the formation process and the strain effect in InAs QDs. (C) 2004 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
