Size distribution of islands according to 2D growth model with 2 kinds of diffusion atoms

We simulated the growth of 2D islands with 2 kinds of diffusion atoms using the kinetic Monte- Carlo (kMC) method. As a result, we found that the slow atoms tend to create nuclei and determine the island volume distribution, along with additional properties such as island density. We also conducted a theoretical analysis using the rate equation of the point-island model to confirm these results.

Size Distribution and Its Scaling Behavior of InAlAs/AlGaAs Quantum Dots Grown on GaAs by Molecular Beam Epitaxy

We studied the size distribution and its scaling behavior of self-assembled InAlAs/AlGaAs quantum dots (QDs) grown on GaAs with the Stranski-Krastanov (SK) mode by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE), at both 480°C and 510°C, as a function of InAlAs coverage. A scaling function of the volume was found for the first time in ternary alloy QDs. The function was similar to that of InAs/GaAs QDs, which agreed with the scaling function for the two-dimensional submonolayer homoepitaxy simulation with a critical island size of i = 1. However, a character of i = 0 was also found as a tail in the large volume.

Electronic structures of Cr$_{1-δ}$X (X=S, Te) studied by Cr 2p soft x-ray magnetic circular dichroism

Cr 2p core excited XAS and XMCD spectra of ferromagnetic Cr$_{1-δ}$Te with several concentrations of $δ$=0.11-0.33 and ferrimagnetic Cr$_{5}$S$_{6}$ have been measured. The observed XMCD lineshapes are found to very weakly depend on $δ$ for Cr$_{1-δ}$Te. The experimental results are analyzed by means of a configuration-interaction cluster model calculation with consideration of hybridization and electron correlation effects. The obtained values of the spin magnetic moment by the cluster model analyses are in agreement with the results of the band structure calculation.The calculated result shows that the doped holes created by the Cr deficiency exist mainly in the Te 5porbital of Cr$_{1-δ}$Te, whereas the holes are likely to be in Cr 3d state for Cr$_{5}$S$_{6}$.

Soft X-ray magnetic circular dichroism study of the ferromagnetic Cr$_{1-δ}$Te

The 2p core excited XAS and XMCD spectra of Cr$_{1-δ}$Te with several concentrations of $δ$=0.11-0.33 have been measured. The observed XMCD lineshapes are found to very weakly depend on $δ$. The experimental results are analyzed in terms of the configuration-interaction picture with consideration of hybridization and electron correlation effects. The calculated result shows that CrTe can be classified into a charge transfer type material and created holes preferably exist in Te 5p orbitals in Cr deficient materials Cr$_{1-δ}$Te, which are in consistence with the observed XMCD feature and the reported band structure calculation.

Electronic structure of Cr1-dS (d=0,0.17) with NiAs-type crystal structure

Valence-band and conduction-band electronic structure of CrS (d=0) and Cr5S6 (d=0.17) has been investigated by means of photoemission and inverse-photoemission spectroscopies. Bandwidth of the valence bands of Cr5S6 (8.5 eV) is wider than that of CrS (8.1 eV), though the Cr 3d partial density of states evaluated from the Cr 3p-3d resonant photoemission spectroscopy is almost unchanged between the two compounds with respect to the shapes including binding energies. The Cr 3d (t2g) exchange splitting energies of CrS and Cr5S6 are determined to be 3.9 and 3.3 eV, respectively.
