Book excerpt: Experimental work this past year was primarily directed toward enhancing the growth and characterization capabilities of the PI's laboratory. Significant improvements were completed on the MBE system and the in-situ ellipsometry apparatus was demonstrated in a bread board setup. Theoretical work consisted of preliminary Monte-Carlo investigation of the MBE growth III-V compounds. Extensive progress was made on modeling the phase separation occurring during growth of Al(x)Ga(1-x)As on (110) GaAs. A mismatch induced, strain dependent exchange reaction between Al and Ga was shown to give long period variations in the Al concentration. The specific predictions of the theory will be tested in a collaborative effort with JPL.
