Abstract
The formation of anti-phase disorder during MOVPE growth of pseudomorphic GaP films on Si(100) substrates served as a lattice matched model system for the crucial III–V/Si(100) interface. A variety of surface-sensitive methods was applied to establish suitable Si(100) substrate preparation and subsequent GaP growth free of anti-phase domains (APDs), by analyzing the substrate surface, the interface and the epitaxial film resulting from the heteroepitaxial process. We studied thermal removal of native and protective wet-chemical SiO2 layers from Si(100) substrates in a MOVPE reactor by means of XPS and required annealing at a surface temperature of 950 °C for reliable deoxidation in a hydrogen ambient.
