Abstract: We study the initial growth of 10 monolayers (MLs) of GaSb on a (001) GaP substrate. Transmission electron microscopy and reflection high energy electron diffraction analysis show that an Sb-rich GaP surface promotes the formation of a 90° misfit dislocation array at the epi-substrate interface. Using atomic force microscopy, we investigate the influence of the growth temperature and the growth rate on the formation and the shape of GaSb islands.
