Interfacial reactions between epitaxial films of Fe and GaAs were examined using Rutherford backscattering spectrometry, x-ray diffraction, and transmission electron microscopy as a function of postgrowth annealing conditions. At 450°C, two stable binary phases were observed at the Fe∕GaAs(001) interface with DO3Fe3Ga forming near the Fe interface and Fe2As forming near the GaAs interface. The diffusion rate of Fe in the reacted interface was found to be of similar magnitude to that of Ga and As resulting in a rough and intermixed interfacial region.
