ABSTRACT
Fabrication technology at the nanometer scale to develop advanced devices
and low-dimensional structures requires atomic-scale control of thin-film
growth, selective-area growth, and ultra-fine photolithography. To develop
such atomic-scale control techniques, advanced characterization at the
atomic-scale is needed. We are now investigating surface and interface
structures and ways to control growth modes by surface modification, and
also trying to develop methods that allow real-time observation of thin-film
crystal growth by using synchrotron radiation photoelectron spectroscopy.
This seminar presents recent results obtained by these techniques for InAs
nanocrystals on GaAs, and also presents results for real-time crystal growth
observation.
