Film growth of Cd1-xMnxTe on GaAs by ICB technique.

Abstract
We investigated the crystallographic and magneto- optical properties of Cd1-xMnxTe films grown on (100) GaAs substrates. The growth of either (111) or (100) oriented Cd1-xMnxTe film on a (100) GaAs substrate was successfully controlled by changing the electron current Ie for ionization or the acceleration voltage Va. This different film growth was considered a result of a change in nucleus formation in the initial stage of film growth by the electric charge and kinetic energy of ionized clusters. From measuremerits of the Kerr rotation spectra, it was found that the Faraday rotation of the films on a GaAs substrate exhibited the same characteristics as those on a sapphire substrate.
