Effect of substrate temperature on composition ratio x in molecular-beam-epitaxial GaAs1−xPx

Abstract
GaAs1−xPx crystals were grown by molecular‐beam epitaxy with parametric variation of substrate temperature Ts (540–580 °C) and of the ratio of beam intensity of P to that of As (2–11). The rate of decrease of composition ratio x with temperature, −dx/dTs, is 0.003 °C−1 for all ratios of beam intensity. The sticking coefficient of P is found to vary inversely proportional to the substrate temperature in this temperature range. This fact indicates the possibility of writing two‐dimensional patterns on the surface by a partial temperature rise.
