Molecular dynamics simulation of GaAs molecular beam epitaxy
The vapor deposition of epitaxial GaAs and (Ga,Mn)As thin films during far-from-equilibrium growth is studied using classical molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Both a Tersoff potential and a preliminary version of a bond order potential (BOP) are utilized for the simulations. The film morphology is studied at various substrate temperatures and As:Ga flux ratios. We also explore the low-temperature growth of Ga0.94Mn0.06As and the Mn clustering trends in as-grown films.
