Abstract
Reflection high-energy electron diffraction and (RHEED) and x-ray-phot oelectron spectroscopy have been used to study dynamical growth proces ses of ZnSe on GaAs(111)A-(2x2). ZnSe heteroepitaxially grows in a bia tomic layer-by-layer mode with the(111)A orientation, being accompanie d by distinct RHEED intensity oscillations. The growth rate of ZnSe in creases and decreases with increasing Se/Zn flux ratio and ZnSe film t hickness, respectively. We have found a strong dependence of the growt h rate on chemical composition of the growing ZnSe surface.
