Molecular Beam Epitaxy of LiMnAs
arXiv:1009.0699 · doi:10.1016/j.jcrysgro.2010.11.077
Abstract
We report on the molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) growth of high crystalline quality LiMnAs. The introduction of a group-I alkali metal element Li with flux comparable to fluxes of Mn and As has not caused any apparent damage to the MBE system after as many as fifteen growth cycles performed on the system to date.
