Stringfellow, Gerald B. | Effect of growth rate on step structure and ordering in GaInP | CuPt ordering is widely observed in GaInP epitaxial layers grown by organometallic vapor phase epitaxy. The formation of this spontaneously ordered structure during epitaxial growth is intimately related to the atomic-scale physical processes occurring on the surface, specifically surface reconst... | Atomic force microscopy; Organometallic vapor phase; Crystallographic plane | 1997 |
