Abstract

We performed "in-situ" ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS) measurements during both solid-source and gas-source molecular-beam homoepitaxial growths on Si(100) surfaces. We found that the photoelectron intensity associated with surface states periodically oscillates during Si epitaxial growth. We demonstrate that the UPS intensity oscillation is associated with the alternation between the 2 × 1 and the 1× 2 surface reconstructions on the Si(100) surface, which resulted from Si layer-by-layer growth.
