Abstract
Monolithic integration of III-V on silicon has been a scientifically appealing concept for decades. Notable progress has recently been made in this research area, fueled by significant interests of the electronics industry in high-mobility channel transistors and the booming development of silicon photonics technology. In this review article, we outline the fundamental roadblocks for the epitaxial growth of highly mismatched III-V materials, including arsenides, phosphides, and antimonides, on (001) oriented silicon substrates. Advances in hetero-epitaxy and selective-area hetero-epitaxy from micro to nano length scales are discussed. Opportunities in emerging electronics and integrated photonics are also presented.
期刊介绍:
Materials especially crystalline materials provide the foundation of our modern technologically driven world. The domination of materials is achieved through detailed scientific research.
Advances in the techniques of growing and assessing ever more perfect crystals of a wide range of materials lie at the roots of much of today''s advanced technology. The evolution and development of crystalline materials involves research by dedicated scientists in academia as well as industry involving a broad field of disciplines including biology, chemistry, physics, material sciences and engineering. Crucially important applications in information technology, photonics, energy storage and harvesting, environmental protection, medicine and food production require a deep understanding of and control of crystal growth. This can involve suitable growth methods and material characterization from the bulk down to the nano-scale.
