Abstract
We report the observation of periodic compositional modulation in ZnSe 1-xTex alloys grown by molecular beam epitaxy on vicinal (100) GaAs su bstrates. The period is highly regular, with typical values between 18 and 32 Angstrom, and is long range in character. X-ray diffraction in dicates that the composition varies approximately sinusoidally, result ing in superlattices that are expected to have unique physical propert ies.
