Abstract
Ultra thin buried InAs layers on GaAs (001) crystals prepared by molecular beam epitaxy are structurally characterized using synchrotron radiation. Gr azing incidence X-ray reflectivity and crystal truncation rods were utilize d to determine the average layer thickness, interface roughness, and the st oichiometry of the layers. From X-ray standing wave experiments the In latt ice site and vertical distribution are determined. We discuss our results i n view of the structural transition of the layer system with In deposition from 1.0 to 2.1 ML.
