Abstract

Heteroepitaxial growth of CaxSr1-xF2 layers on Si (100) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy has been investigated for GaAs / fluoride / Si structures. The Si (100) substrates off-oriented toward [011] show no considerable influence on crystallinity of CaF2 and SrF2 epitaxial layers. The off - oriented substrates, however, influence a remarkable effect on CaxSr1-xF2 layers, resulting in poor crystallinity rather than good one. This influence of off-oriented Si (100) substrates on the heteroepitaxy of CaxSr1-xF2 layers was the opposite of that found in GaAs/Si (100) structures.
