“…This model was tested by performing very short growth runs, where indeed a single small crystallite is found within each template. Likewise, a single nucleus per mask opening was previously reported by Kondo et al and Björk et al by selective area epitaxy.…”

“…We have investigated the effect of pre-flow sources introduced before the start of InAs growth. Through comparison between TBAs and TBP as the pre-flow sources, we have found that P atoms passivate Si surface more effectively than As atoms, leading to high yield nucleation in each growth area and better uniformity in both size and shape of InAs nuclei [24]. The partial pressures of TMIn (P TMIn ) and TBAs (P TBAs ) were kept constant at 0.13 and 5.4 Pa, respectively.…”

“…We now have obtained all the items for an improved uniformity of lateral growth: (1) phosphorus pretreatment of Si (in the previous work [21]), (2) reduced size (1 mm in diameter) of the Si windows, (3) flow-modulation growth of InAs for highyield nucleation and lateral growth, (4) self-aligned InAs growth for uniform hexagonal prisms using the boundary of the Si windows. Here, we will demonstrate an improvement in the shape uniformity of InGaAs micro-disks.…”

“…It seems that both TBP and TBAs can remove surface contamination to a certain extent through surface reactions of their decomposition products such as hydrocarbon radicals. The advantage of TBP probably lies in the better surface passivation by P, rather than As due to its stronger bonding to Si, which prevents further surface contamination [21].…”
