Self-Organized Growth of Composition-Modulated Alloys

Abstract

The alloy growth in open systems can result in both 1D and 2D modulated structure and the orientation of the structure is determined by growth temperature and growth velocity. Principle results. obtained for binary alloys, remain valid for ternary and quaternary alloys. This explains the 1 D structure in InAlAs modulated in 101 direction, the ID structure in MgZnSSe modulated in 100-direction, and the 2D structure in GaInAsP modulated in 100 and 010-directions.
