“…When the adsorption height at the bridge site is not quite different from the atomic layer distance of (100) GaAs (1.413 A), the adsobates do not cause a high stress, and hence such defects and disorder are not generated, as far as the critical thickness is not exceeded. Seto et al 10,16) reported that O adsorbs at the bridge sites of a Ga plane with an extremely low height (nearly zero) and generates a high stress, which very possibly generates defects or disorders, although whether the stress is accumulated or relaxed depends on the details of the bond structure between O and Ga. 16) Si and Ge, as well as S, Te, Se (passivation effect of these were reported), stably bind with the surface Ga or As atoms with heights of more than 1…”
