Homoepitaxial films of CdTe were grown on vicinal CdTe(100) surfaces using Cd(CH3)2 and Te(C3H7)2 precursors in an atmosphere of H2. The vicinal CdTe(100) substrates were misoriented by 0°, 2°, 4°, 6°, and 8° from the (100) direction towards the (111)Te direction and thus had systematically increasing step densities. The CdTe films grown on these surfaces were single crystalline and epitaxial but had gross surface morphologies that depended on the misorientation of the substrate. Films grown on the CdTe(100)-0° and CdTe(100)-8° substrates were rough while those grown on the CdTe(100)-4° substrate were smooth. The kinetics of film growth were studied through measurements of the overall film growth rates and measurements of precursor adsorption/desorption kinetics. Film growth rates were weakly dependent on the degree of substrate misorientation, increasing slightly with increasing step density. Although the step density determines film morphology, the steps are not active sites for decomposition of precurs...
