Growth mode, surface morphology, crystal perfection and growth rate of siliconmolecular beam epitaxy films were observed as function of temperature (450°–950°C), silicon flux density (8×1014−8×1015cm2/s) and surface orientation (111, 110, 100). Within the varied parameters growth proceeds by the two-dimensional growth mode via the lateral motion of atomic steps originating from the slight misorientation of commercially available substrates (typically 0.25°). Single crystalline films with high lattice perfection and smooth surfaces result from this growth mode. The growth rate — linearly dependent on Si-flux density and independant of temperature and orientation — indicates a condensation coefficient near unity. An atomic step flow model on the basis of the Burton-Cabrera-Frank theory explains this behaviour by mobile adatoms with low activation energy of diffusion.
