A strain-relieved and defect-free cubic phase GaAs was achieved above these highly defective regions. High-resolution transmission electron microscopy and fast Fourier transforms analysis were performed to characterize these regions of GaAs/Si interface. We also discussed the strain relaxation mechanism and phase structure modulation of GaAs selectively grown on this artificially manipulated surface.展开更多

GaAs thin films are deposited via metal-organic chemical vapor deposition by using a two-step growth process. Threading disJocations arising from lattice mismatch are trapped by laterally confining sidewalls, and antiphase domains boundaries are completely restricted by V-groove trenches with Si { 111} facets. Material quality is confirmed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and high resolution X-ray diffraction. Low temperature photoluminescence (PL) measurement is used to analyze the thermal strain relaxation in GaAs layers. This approach shows great promise for the realization of high mobility devices or optoelectronie integrated circuits on Si substrates.展开更多
