Kinetic Monte Carlo simulation of the nitridation of the GaAs (100) surfaces

Abstract

We present, our preliminary results of a systematic theoretical study of the adsorption of N over As-terminated GaAs (100) (2×1) surfaces. We analyzed the changes in the bond-lengths, bond-angles and the energetics involved before and after deposition. Our results show that the N-atoms will prefer the unoccupied sites of the surface, close to the As dimer. The presence of N pushes the As dimer out of the surface, leading to the anion exchange between N and As atoms. Based on our results, we discussed the kinetics of the N islands formation during epitaxial growth of the III-Nitrides.

The Dirac equation in (1 + 2) -dimensional Gürses space-time backgrounds

“…The bound state solutions of the Dirac equation for the one-dimensional linear potential with Lorentz scalar and vector couplings, were investigated in Ref. [38]. The solutions of the Dirac equation and the non-relativistic limit for a linear scalar potential, were studied in Ref.…”

Dirac equation in low dimensions: The factorization method

“…In the last expression, 1 stands for the 2 × 2 identity matrix and H is the Hamiltonian operator. Because there are only four linearly independent 2×2 matrices, then the potential matrix V is the most general combination of Lorentz structures [12,13,14]. Let us consider the adjoint Hamiltonian (H † ) given by…”

Bound-state solutions of the Dirac equation for the Kratzer potential with pseudoscalar-Coulomb term

“…In Ref. [10], the bound state solutions of the Dirac equation with pseudoscalar potential have been studied for a linear potential. In Ref.…”
