We investigated the growth mode and the dislocation generation process
in the growth of (InP)(1)(GaAs)(n) quaternary strained short-period s
uperlattice (SSPS) on GaAs(100) by reflection high-energy electron dif
fraction (RHEED) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The (InP)
(1)(GaAs)(n) SSPSs with n of 2 and 3 were two-dimensionally grown even
after the lattice relaxation. The generation of threading dislocation
s was suppressed by introducing the [011] misfit dislocations at the h
etero-interface.
