    Lattice matched Volmer–Weber growth of Fe3Si on GaAs(001) - the influence of the growth rate
    (Bristol : IOP Publ., 2019) Jenichen, B.; Cheng, Z.; Hanke, M.; Herfort, J.; Trampert, A.
    We investigate the formation of lattice matched single-crystalline Fe3Si/GaAs(001) ferromagnet/semiconductor hybrid structures by Volmer-Weber island growth, starting from the epitaxial growth of isolated Fe3Si islands up to the formation of continuous films as a result of island coalescence. We find coherent defect-free layers exhibiting compositional disorder near the Fe3Si/GaAs - interface for higher growth rates, whereas they are fully ordered for lower growth rates. © 2019 IOP Publishing Ltd.
