Abstract

Bi/Bi1-xSbxmultiquantum well structure has been grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on GaAs(001) substrate with a buffer layer of CdTe (111). The GaAs substrate was preheated at a temperature of 580 °C in the MBE chamber with vacuum of 10-10torr for 10 minutes. The CdTe (111) buffer layer was grown with thickness of 300 nm at temperature of 280 °C. The Bi/Bi1-xSbxmultilayer structure with x of 0.15, repeated 40 times, was grown at substrate temperature of 130°C. As-deposited samples were characterized by reflection high-energy electron diffraction(RHEED), X-ray diffraction analysis and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM), indicating a good epitaxial layer quality. The energy band model of the samples have been suggested for the first time.
