Abstract

High quality growth of InSe on Si(111) was achieved by insertion of GaSe buffer layer. Rhombohedral polytypes were formed in both the InSe and GaSe layers. Twinning and stacking disorder was often detected in these materials due to their layered structure. Moreover, in samples with a thin GaSe layer, strong interdiffusion of indium into the GaSe layer was detected that resulted in the formation of an InxGaySe phase. The dominant threading defects present in these InSe/GaSe heterostructures were screw dislocations, which may act as nonradiative recombination centers.
