摘要
By means of Auger electron spectroscopy and in situ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED) the interfacial reaction during the epitaxial growth of yttrium on CaF2(111) has been studied. The RHEED patterns confirm a smooth Volmer-Weber growth mode. Auger electron spectroscopy evidences a strong interdiffusion of the film and substrate, leading to a compressive in-plane strain of the growing film. Using RHEED, we can follow the strain relaxation via misfit glides during growth. The development and crystalline orientation of the glides are characterized. (C) 2003 American Institute of Physics.
