Molecular beam epitaxy growth of GaSb1-xBix without rotation
Artikel i vetenskaplig tidskrift, 2019

GaSb1-xBix thin film was grown on a 2 inch GaSb substrate by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) without substrate rotation. Bi composition is found to vary from 2.76% to 3.98% across the wafer. The distribution of Bi content is mainly determined by spatial non-uniformity of Sb/Ga flux ratio, while Bi flux has slightly influence. Ostwald ripening process is confirmed to be reason for bigger Bi droplets via Bi surface diffusion. With the increase of Sb/Ga flux ratio, Ostwald ripening process is suppressed. At high Bi flux, excess Ga atoms accumulate on surface and form droplets.
