Conclusions

Thus, joint analysis of data on the growth rate and the structure of the growth surface of epitaxial GaAs layers made it possible to obtain quantitative characteristics of the surface processes (tangential velocity of steps, average diffusion length of adsorbed particles, reaction time at a kink, density and average height of growth steps) and their dependence on the deposition temperature. The absence of qualitative changes in the microrelief in the passage from region I to region II [1] confirms that the two ranges of temperatures are kinetic while the motion of the growth steps is controlled by surface processes. For the 〈111〉A pole this consists primarily of surface-diffusion limitations while for the 〈111〉B consists of limitations on the reaction rate at the steps.
