Abstract
Much interest has recently been focused on Zn x Cd1-x Se alloy because of its potential applications in optoelectronic devices in the blue-green spectral region [1], Bulk Zn x Cd1-x Se alloy crystallizes either in the cubic zinc-blende structure (x>0.7), in the hexagonal wurtzite structure (x>0.5), or in mixture of these two structures for 0.5≤x≤0.7 [2]. It has, however, been reported that the heteroepitaxy of Zn x Cd1-xSe on GaAs(100) by MBE results in single-phase zinc-blende crystals over the entire composition range from ZnSe to CdSe [3]. High-quality Zn x Cd1-x Se (X=0.53) epilayer can also be grown on (lOO)InP substrate lattice-matched by MBE [4].
