Crystalline zinc blende GaAs has been grown on a trigonal c-plane sapphire substrate by molecular beam epitaxy. The initial stage of thin film growth investigated extensively in this paper. When sapphire, it takes (111) crystal orientation with twinning as major problem. Direct results three-dimensional islands, almost 50% twin volume, and weak in-plane correlation the substrate. Introducing AlAs nucleation layer complete wetting substrate, better reduced to 16%. Further, we effect...

Highly sensitive acetone sensing performance of Pd/AlGaN/GaN resistive devices in the temperature range 100 °C-250 °C and detection 100-1000 ppm was reported. A plasma-assisted molecular beam epitaxy used to grow AlGaN/GaN heterostructure on Si (111) substrate. Structural characterization grown epilayers performed through double-crystal X-ray diffraction whereas atomic force microscopy obtain roughness surface. Resistive mode configuration sample tested toward °C. The optimum found be 150...
