Molecular beam epitaxy of Ge (111) thin films on epitaxial-Gd2O3/Si(111) substrates is reported, along with a systematic investigation of the evolution of Ge growth, and structural defects in the grown epilayer. While Ge growth begins in the Volmer-Weber growth mode, the resultant islands coalesce within the first 10 nm of growth, beyond which a smooth two-dimensional surface evolves. Coalescence of the initially formed islands results in formation of rotation and reflection microtwins, which constitute a volume fraction of less than 1 %. It is also observed that while the stacking sequence of the (111) planes in the Ge epilayer is similar to that of the Si substrate, the (111) planes of the Gd2O3 epilayer are rotated by 180 degree about the [111] direction. In metal-semiconductor-metal schottky photodiodes fabricated with these all-epitaxial Ge-on-insulator (GeOI) samples, significant suppression of dark current is observed due to the presence of the Gd2O3 epilayer. These results are promising for application of these GeOI structures as virtual substrates, or for realization of high-speed group-IV photonic components.
Relying on the magnetism induced by the proximity effect in heterostructures of topological insulators and magnetic insulators is one of the promising routes to achieve the quantum anomalous Hall effect. Here we investigate heterostructures of Bi$_2$Te$_3$ and Fe$_3$O$_4$. By growing two different types of heterostructures by molecular beam epitaxy, Fe$_3$O$_4$ on Bi$_2$Te$_3$ and Bi$_2$Te$_3$ on Fe$_3$O$_4$, we explore differences in chemical stability, crystalline quality, electronic structure, and transport properties. We find the heterostructure Bi$_2$Te$_3$ on Fe$_3$O$_4$ to be a more via…
Unlike widely explored complex oxide heterostructures grown along [001], the study of [111]-oriented heterointerfaces are very limited thus far. One of the main challenges is to overcome the polar discontinuity that hinders the epitaxy of atomically sharp interfaces. Here, by taking the LaCoO3/SrTiO3(111) as a prototype, we show that the reconstruction, which effectively compensates the surface polarity, can stabilize the epitaxy of the heterostructure with polar discontinuity. Reconstructed substrate surface is prepared, while the growth is controlled to form reconstruction on the film surfac…
The remote epitaxy was originally proposed to grow a film, which is not in contact but crystallographically aligned with a substrate and easily detachable due to a van der Waals material as a space layer. Here we show that the claimed remote epitaxy is more likely to be nonremote `thru-hole' epitaxy. On a substrate with thick and symmetrically incompatible van der Waals space layer or even with a three-dimensional amorphous oxide film in-between, we demonstratively grew GaN domains through thru-holes via connectedness-initiated epitaxial lateral overgrowth, not only readily detachable but also…
The combination of two-dimensional (2D) materials into heterostructures enabled the formation of atomically thin devices with designed properties. To achieve a high density, bottom-up integration, the growth of these 2D heterostructures via van der Waals epitaxy (vdWE) is an attractive alternative to the currently mostly employed mechanical transfer, which is still problematic in terms of scaling and reproducibility. However, controlling the location of the nuclei formation remains a key challenge in vdWE. Here, we use a focused He ion beam for a deterministic placement of defects in graphene …
The unique physics found in moiré superlattices of twisted or lattice-mismatched atomic layers hold great promise for future quantum technologies. However, twisted configurations are typically thermodynamically unfavorable, making the accurate twist angle control in direct growth implausible. While rotationally aligned moiré superlattices based on lattice-mismatched layers such as WSe2/WS2 can be synthesized, they lack the critical tunability of the moiré period and the moiré formation mechanisms are not well-understood. Here, we report the scalable, thermodynamically driven van der Waals epit…
Epitaxial ferroelectric HfO2 films are the most suitable to investigate intrinsic properties of the material and for prototyping emerging devices. Ferroelectric Hf0.5Zr0.5O2(111) films have been epitaxially stabilized on La2/3Sr1/3MnO3(001) electrodes. This epitaxy, considering the symmetry dissimilarity and the huge lattice mismatch, is not compatible with conventional mechanisms of epitaxy. To gain insight into the epitaxy mechanism, scanning transmission electron microscopy characterization of the interface was performed, revealing arrays of dislocations with short periodicities. These obse…
Remote epitaxy on monolayer graphene is promising for synthesis of highly lattice mismatched materials, exfoliation of free-standing membranes, and re-use of expensive substrates. However, clear experimental evidence of a remote mechanism remains elusive. In many cases, due to contaminants at the transferred graphene/substrate interface, alternative mechanisms such as pinhole-seeded lateral epitaxy or van der Waals epitaxy can explain the resulting exfoliatable single-crystalline films. Here, we find that growth of the Heusler compound GdPtSb on clean graphene on sapphire substrates produces a…
We report on the controlled growth of h-BN/graphite by means of molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) suggests an interface without any reaction or intermixing, while the angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES) measurements show that the h-BN layers are epitaxially aligned with graphite. A well-defined band structure is revealed by ARPES measurement, reflecting the high quality of the h-BN films. The measured valence band maximum (VBM) located at 2.8 eV below the Fermi level reveals the presence of undoped h-BN films (band gap ~ 6 eV). These results dem…
Using molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) to grow multi-elemental oxides (MEO) is generally challenging, partly due to difficulty in stoichiometry control. Occasionally, if one of the elements is volatile at the growth temperature, stoichiometry control can be greatly simplified using adsorption-controlled growth mode. Otherwise, stoichiometry control remains one of the main hurdles to achieving high quality MEO film growths. Here, we report another kind of self-limited growth mode, dubbed diffusion-assisted epitaxy, in which excess species diffuses into the substrate and leads to the desired stoichi…
Fe$_{3}$Si/Ge(Fe,Si)/Fe$_{3}$Si thin film stacks were grown by a combination of molecular beam epitaxy and solid phase epitaxy (Ge on Fe$_{3}$Si). The stacks were analyzed using electron microscopy, electron diffraction, and synchrotron X-ray diffraction. The Ge(Fe,Si) films crystallize in the well oriented, layered tetragonal structure FeGe$_{2}$ with space group P4mm. This kind of structure does not exist as a bulk material and is stabilized by solid phase epitaxy of Ge on Fe$_{3}$Si. We interpret this as an ordering phenomenon induced by minimization of the elastic energy of the epitaxial f…
We report on the growth of epitaxial ZnO thin films and ZnO based heterostructures on sapphire substrates by laser molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). We first discuss some recent developments in laser-MBE such as flexible ultra-violet laser beam optics, infrared laser heating systems or the use of atomic oxygen and nitrogen sources, and describe the technical realization of our advanced laser-MBE system. Then we describe the optimization of the deposition parameters for ZnO films such as laser fluence and substrate temperature and the use of buffer layers. The detailed structural characterization b…
Si1-xGex/Si1-yGey/Si(100) heterostructures grown by Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) were used in order to study B surface segregation during growth and B lattice diffusion. Ge concentration and stress effects were separated. Analysis of B segregation during growth shows that: i) for layers in epitaxy on (100)Si), B segregation decreases with increasing Ge concentration, i.e. with increased compressive stress, ii) for unstressed layers, B segregation increases with Ge concentration, iii) at constant Ge concentration, B segregation increases for layers in tension and decreases for layers in compres…
Transition metal oxide heterostructures and interfaces host a variety of exciting quantum phases and can be grown with atomic-scale precision by utilising the intensity oscillations of $in$ $situ$ reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED). However, establishing a stable oscillation pattern in the growth calibration of complex oxides films is very challenging and time consuming. Here, we develop a substantially more efficient and reliable growth calibration method for complex oxide films using molecular beam epitaxy.
We present a unified model of compound semiconductor growth based on kinetic Monte Carlo simulations in tandem with new experimental results that can describe and predict the mechanisms for the formation of various types of nanostructures observed during droplet epitaxy. The crucial features of the model include the explicit and independent representation of atoms with different species and the ability to treat solid and liquid phases independently. Using this model, we examine nanostructural evolution in droplet epitaxy. The model faithfully captures several of the experimentally observed str…
We have investigated the growth by molecular-beam epitaxy of the II-VI diluted magnetic semiconductor (Zn,Mn)Se on As-passivated Si(100) substrates. The growth start has been optimized by using low-temperature epitaxy. Surface properties were assessed by Nomarski and scanning electron microscopy. Optical properties of (Zn,Mn)Se have been studied by photoluminescence and a giant Zeeman splitting of up to 30 meV has been observed. Our observations indicate a high crystalline quality of the epitaxial films.
We report on the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of high crystalline quality LiMnAs. The introduction of a group-I alkali metal element Li with flux comparable to fluxes of Mn and As has not caused any apparent damage to the MBE system after as many as fifteen growth cycles performed on the system to date.
We report in this work on the spectral purity of pyramidal site-controlled InGaAs/AlGaAs Quantum Dots grown by metalorganic vapour phase epitaxy on(111)B oriented GaAs substrates. Extremely sharp emission peaks were found, showing linewidths surprisingly narrow (~27μeV) and comparable to those which can be obtained by Molecular Beam Epitaxy in an ultra-high vacuum environment. A careful reactor handling is regarded as a crucial step toward the fabrication of high optical quality systems.
We demonstrate the making of BaZrS3 thin films by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). BaZrS3 forms in the orthorhombic distorted-perovskite structure with corner-sharing ZrS6 octahedra. The single-step MBE process results in films smooth on the atomic scale, with near-perfect BaZrS3 stoichiometry and an atomically-sharp interface with the LaAlO3 substrate. The films grow epitaxially via two, competing growth modes: buffered epitaxy, with a self-assembled interface layer that relieves the epitaxial strain, and direct epitaxy, with rotated-cube-on-cube growth that accommodates the large lattice consta…
We investigate the initial growth modes and the role of interfacial electrostatic interactions of EuO epitaxy on MgO(001) by reactive molecular beam epitaxy. A TiO2 interfacial layer is employed to produce high quality epitaxial growth of EuO on MgO(001) with a 45° in plane rotation. For comparison, direct deposition of EuO on MgO, without the TiO2 layer shows a much slower time evolution in producing a single crystal film. Conceptual arguments of electrostatic repulsion of like-ions are introduced to explain the increased EuO quality at the interface with the TiO2 layer. It is shown that ultr…
Molecular beam epitaxy offers an exciting avenue for investigating the behavior of topological semimetal Cd3As2, by providing routes for doping, alloying, strain engineering, and heterostructure formation. To date, however, minimal exploration has been devoted to the impact of defects that are incorporated into epilayers due to contraints imposed by the substrate and narrow growth window. Here, we use a combination of lattice-matched ZnxCd1-xTe buffer layers, miscut substrates and broadband illumination to study how dislocations, twins and point defects influence the electron mobility of Cd3As…

Epitaxial thin films of 1T-HfTe2 semimetal are grown by MBE on AlN(0001) substrates. The measured in-plane lattice parameter indicates an unstrained film which is also azimuthally aligned with the AlN substrate, albeit with an in-plane mosaic spread, as it would be expected for van der Waals epitaxy. Angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy combined with first principles electronic band structure calculations show steep linearly dispersing conduction and valence bands which cross near the Brillouin zone center, providing evidence that HfTe2 /AlN is an epitaxial topological Dirac semimetal.
We observe a catalytic mechanism during the growth of III-O and IV-O materials by suboxide molecular-beam epitaxy ($S$-MBE). By supplying the molecular catalysts In$_2$O and SnO we increase the growth rates of Ga$_2$O$_3$ and In$_2$O$_3$. This catalytic action is explained by a metastable adlayer $A$, which increases the reaction probability of the reactants Ga$_2$O and In$_2$O with active atomic oxygen, leading to an increase of the growth rates of Ga$_2$O$_3$ and In$_2$O$_3$. We derive a model for the growth of binary III-O and IV-O materials by $S$-MBE and apply these findings to a generali…
We report on the growth and characterization of metalorganic vapor-phase epitaxy-grown \b{eta}-(AlxGa1-x)2O3/\b{eta}-Ga2O3 modulation-doped heterostructures. Electron channel is realized in the heterostructure by utilizing a delta-doped \b{eta}-(AlxGa1-x)2O3 barrier. Electron channel characteristics are studied using transfer length method, capacitance-voltage and Hall measurements. Hall sheet charge density of 1.06 x 1013 cm-2 and mobility of 111 cm2/Vs is measured at room temperature. Fabricated transistor showed peak current of 22 mA/mm and on-off ratio of 8 x 106. Sheet resistance of 5.3 k…
Stoichiometric, epitaxial LaCrO3 films have been grown on TiO2-terminated SrTiO3(001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using O2 as the oxidant. Film growth occurred in a layer-by-layer fashion, giving rise to structurally excellent films and surfaces which preserve the step-terrace structure of the substrate. The critical thickness is in excess of 500 Å. Near-surface Cr(III) is highly susceptible to further oxidation to Cr(V), leading to the formation of a disordered phase upon exposure to atomic oxygen. Recovery of the original epitaxial LaCrO3 phase is readily achieved by vacuum annealin…
Epitaxial growth of BaBiO3 thin films on SrTiO3(001) and MgO(001) substrates using molecular beam epitaxy and controlling their crystal orientations competition
Scalable fabrication of magnetic 2D materials and heterostructures constitutes a crucial step for scaling down current spintronic devices and the development of novel spintronic applications. Here, we report on van der Waals (vdW) epitaxy of the layered magnetic metal Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$ - a 2D crystal with highly tunable properties and a high prospect for room temperature ferromagnetism - directly on graphene by employing molecular beam epitaxy. Morphological and structural characterization confirmed the realization of large-area, continuous Fe$_3$GeTe$_2$/graphene heterostructure films with stabl…
For electrical spin injection and detection of spin-polarized electrons in silicon, we explore highly epitaxial growth of ferromagnetic full-Heusler-alloy Co2FeSi thin films on silicon substrates using low-temperature molecular beam epitaxy (LTMBE). Although in-situ reflection high energy electron diffraction images clearly show two-dimensional epitaxial growth for growth temperatures T_G of 60, 130, and 200 C, cross-sectional transmission electron microscopy experiments reveal that there are single-crystal phases other than Heusler alloys near the interface between Co_2FeSi and Si for T_G = 1…
Variations in growth conditions associated with different deposition techniques can greatly affect the phase stability and defect structure of complex oxide heterostructures. We synthesized superlattices of the paramagnetic metal LaNiO3 and the large band gap insulator LaAlO3 by atomic layer-by-layer molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) and pulsed laser deposition (PLD) and compared their crystallinity, microstructure as revealed by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy images and resistivity. The MBE samples show a higher density of stacking faults, but smoother interfaces and generally hi…
We report the growth of self-assembled Bi2Se3 quantum dots (QDs) by molecular beam epitaxy on GaAs substrates using the droplet epitaxy technique. The QD formation occurs after anneal of Bismuth droplets under Selenium flux. Characterization by atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and X-ray reflectance spectroscopy is presented. The quantum dots are crystalline, with hexagonal shape, and have average dimensions of 12 nm height (12 quintuple layers) and 46 nm width, and a density of $8.5 \cdot 10^9 cm^{-2}$. T…
The authors have applied positron annihilation spectroscopy to study the effect of different growth conditions on vacancy formation in In- and N-polar InN grown by plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy. The results suggest that the structural quality of the material and limited diffusion of surface adatoms during growth dictate the In vacancy formation in low electron-density undoped epitaxial InN, while growth conditions and thermodynamics have a less important role, contrary to what is observed in, e.g., GaN. Further, the results imply that in high quality InN, the electron mobility is like…
The epitaxial growth of {111} oriented Au on MoS$_2$ is well documented despite the large lattice mismatch (~8% biaxial strain), and the fact that a Au {001} orientation results in much less elastic strain. An analysis based on density functional and linear elasticity theories reveals that the {111} orientation is stabilized by a combination of favorable surface and interfacial contributions to the energy, and the compliance of the first layer of the MoS$_2$.
Complex oxides with tunable structures have many fascinating properties, though high-quality complex oxide epitaxy with precisely controlled composition is still out of reach. Here we have successfully developed solution-based single crystalline epitaxy for multiferroic (1-x)BiTi(1-y)/2FeyMg(1-y)/2O3-(x)CaTiO3 (BTFM-CTO) solid solution in large area, confirming its ferroelectricity at atomic-scale with a spontaneous polarization of 79~89uC/cm2. Careful compositional tuning leads to a bulk magnetization of ~0.07uB/Fe at room temperature, enabling magnetically induced polarization switching exhi…
We present a detailed study of the growth of the tetragonal polymorph of antiferromagnetic CuMnAs by the molecular beam epitaxy technique. We explore the parameter space of growth conditions and their effect on the microstructural and transport properties of the material. We identify its typical structural defects and compare the properties of epitaxial CuMnAs layers grown on GaP, GaAs and Si substrates. Finally, we investigate the correlation between the crystalline quality of CuMnAs and its performance in terms of electrically induced resistance switching.
Renewable energy sources such as solar and wind are critical to combatting global warming. Nevertheless, their intermittent energy generation requires the development of large-scale grid energy storage, in contrast to the on-demand generation of coal-based power plants. Sodium-ion batteries offer a promising potential technology, yet because sodium ions are larger than lithium ions, sodium-ion intercalation results in more drastic structural rearrangements. An improved understanding of structural dynamics and ionic diffusion pathways is crucial to developing more durable sodium-ion batteries. …
SnTe topological crystalline insulator nanowires have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy on graphene/SiC substrates. The nanowires have cubic rock-salt structure, they grow along [001] crystallographic direction and have four sidewalls consisting of {100} crystal planes known to host metallic surface states with Dirac dispersion. Thorough high resolution transmission electron microscopy investigations show that the nanowires grow on graphene in the van der Walls epitaxy mode induced when the catalyzing Au nanoparticle mixes with Sn delivered from SnTe flux, providing liquid Au-Sn alloy. The …
Self-organized pattern formation by the process of reverse epitaxial growth has been investigated on GaAs (001) surfaces during 1 keV Ar+ bombardment at target temperature of 450 degC for a wide range of incident angles. Highly ordered ripple formation driven by diffusion instability is evidenced at near normal incidence angles. Concurrent sample rotation shows that the ripple morphology and its orientation do not depend on the incident beam direction; rather they are determined by the symmetry of the crystal face.
Defect-free epitaxial growth of 2D materials is one of the holy grails for a successful integration of van der Waals (vdW) materials in the semiconductor industry. The large-area (quasi-)vdW epitaxy of layered 2D chalcogenides is consequently carefully being researched since these materials hold very promising properties for future nanoelectronic applications. The formation of defects such as stacking faults like 60o twins and consequently 60o grain boundaries is still of major concern for the defect-free epitaxial growth of 2D chalcogenides. Although growth strategies to overcome the occurren…
High-index Bi2Se3(221) film has been grown on In2Se3-buffered GaAs(001), in which a much retarded strain relaxation dynamics is recorded. The slow strain-relaxation process of in epitaxial Bi2Se3(221) can be attributed to the layered structure of Bi2Se3 crystal, where the epifilm grown along [221] is like a pile of weakly-coupled quintuple layer slabs stacked side-by-side on substrate. Finally, we have revealed the strong chemical bonding at the interface of Bi2Se3 and In2Se3 by plotting differential charge contour calculated by first-principle method. This study points to the feasibility of a…
Wurtzite (Ga,Mn)N films showing ferromagnetic behaviour at room temperature were successfully grown on sapphire(0001) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy using ammonia as nitrogen source. Magnetization measurements were carried out by a superconducting quantum interference device at the temperatures between 1.8K and 300K with magnetic field applied parallel to the film plane up to 7T. The magnetic-field dependence of magnetization of a (Ga,Mn)N film at 300K were ferromagnetic, while a GaN film showed Pauli paramagnetism like behaviour. The Curie temperatures of a (Ga,Mn)N film was estimated a…
Epitaxy of oxide materials on silicon (Si) substrates is of great interest for future functional devices using the large variety of physical properties of the oxides as ferroelectricity, ferromagnetism, or superconductivity. Recently, materials with high spin polarization of the charge carriers have become interesting for semiconductor-oxide hybrid devices in spin electronics. Here, we report on pulsed laser deposition of magnetite (Fe3O4) on Si(001) substrates cleaned by an in situ laser beam high temperature treatment. After depositing a double buffer layer of titanium nitride (TiN) and magn…
Epitaxial thin films of the highly spin polarized Heusler compound Co2Cr0.6Fe0.4Al are deposited by dc magnetron sputtering. It is shown by XRD and TEM investigations how the use of an Fe buffer layer on MgO(100) substrates supports the growth of highly ordered Co2Cr0.6Fe0.4Al at low deposition temperatures. The as grown samples show a relatively large ordered magnetic moment of mu = 3.0mu_B/f.u. providing evidence for a low level of disorder.
We have conducted a detailed thin film growth structure of oxygen engineered monoclinic HfO$_{2\pm x}$ grown by reactive molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The oxidation conditions induce a switching between ($\bar{1}11$) and (002) texture of hafnium oxide. The band gap of oxygen deficient hafnia decreases with increasing amount of oxygen vacancies by more than 1 eV. For high oxygen vacancy concentrations, defect bands form inside the band gap that induce optical transitions and $p$-type conductivity. The resistivity changes by several orders of magnitude as a function of oxidation conditions. Oxyg…
Thick, high-purity semi-insulating (SI)homoepitaxial layers on Si-face 4H-SiC weregrownsystematically, with resistivity \geq 109Ω-cmby maintaining high C/Si ratios 1.3-15 during growth.Comparison of secondary ion mass spectra betweenlow-dopedepilayers grown at C/Si ratio<1.3andSI-epilayers grown at C/Si ratio>1.3 showed little difference in residual impurity concentrations. A reconciliation of impurity concentration with measured resistivity indicated a compensating trap concentration of ~1015cm-3present only in the SI-epilayers. High- resolution photo induced transient spectroscopy (HRPITS) i…
The lattice mismatch between interesting 2D materials and commonly available 3D substrates is one of the obstacles in the epitaxial growth of monolithic 2D/3D heterostructures, but a number of 2D materials have not yet been considered for epitaxy. Here we present the first molecular beam epitaxy growth of NiTe$_{2}$ 2D transition metal dichalcogenide. Importantly, the growth is realized on a nearly lattice matched GaAs(111)B substrate. Structural properties of the grown layers are investigated by electron diffraction, X-ray diffraction, and scanning tunnelling microscopy. Surface coverage and …
Epitaxial layers of the topological insulator Bi2Se3 have been grown by molecular beam epitaxy on laterally lattice-matched InP(111)B substrates. High resolution X-ray diffraction shows a significant improvement of Bi2Se3 crystal quality compared to layers deposited on other substrates. The measured full width at half maximum of the rocking curve is Delta omega=13 arcsec, and the (omega-2theta) scans exhibit clear layer thickness fringes. Atomic force microscope images show triangular twin domains with sizes increasing with layer thickness. The structural quality of the domains is confirmed on…
Si deposition on H terminated Si(100)-2x1 and 3x1 surfaces at temperatures 300-530 K is studied by scanning tunneling microscopy. Hydrogen apparently hinders Si adatom diffusion and enhances surface roughening. The post-growth annealing effect is analyzed. Hydrogen is shown to remain on the growth front up to at least 10 ML. The dihydride units on the 3x1 surfaces further suppress the Si adatom diffusion and increase surface roughness.
A novel laser molecular beam epitaxy (LMBE) system for the fabrication of atomically controlled oxides superlattices and an x-ray diffractometer that measures spatially-resolved x-ray diffraction spectra have been developed based on the concept of combinatorial methodology. The LMBE chamber has two moving masks, an automated target stage, a substrate heating laser, and an in-situ scanning reflection high-energy electron diffraction system. The x-ray diffractometer with a curved monochromator and two-dimensional detector is used for rapid concurrent x-ray diffraction intensity mapping with the …
