| Abstract: | Results of our recent experiments relating to the synchrotron radiation (SR) excited growth of Ⅱ-V compounds using metalorganic sources are described. We discuss mainly the growth characteristics of films in addition to the characterization of the deposited films. ZnTe epitaxial layer without carbon and oxygen contamination is attainable even at room temperature using SR as a light source. The quantum yield for forming ZnTe molecules was estimated to be higher than 3%. Through these experiments, we propose that the SR-excited growth is a powerful technique for a novel low temperature growth of compounds. |
