Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Epitaxial growth of thin film buffer layer is promising technology to integrate low-loss and high-performance semiconductor devices on silicon platform. Also, evaluation methods for buried interfaces, such as growth hetero-interfaces, are necessary. It was found that InAs thin film grown on Si(111) substrate using MBE has compressive strain in the initial few mono-layer and tensile strain after certain thickness, respectively. Additionally, it was demonstrated that photo-assisted impedance spectroscopy and potential-sweep admittance method can evaluate the states at buried interfaces.
