Selective Area Epitaxy of GaAs/Ge/Si Nanomembranes: A Morphological Study

We demonstrate the feasibility of growing GaAs nanomembranes on a plastically-relaxed Ge layer deposited on Si (111) by exploiting selective area epitaxy in MBE. Our results are compared to the case of the GaAs homoepitaxy to highlight the criticalities arising by switching to heteroepitaxy. We foun...
