Abstract

Bi 2Te 3 Bi 2Se 3 and their alloy films were successfully grown by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) on (001) GaAs substrates. The structural properties of these films were investigated by Reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED), Atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), High-resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM) and Raman spectroscopy and mapping. The results indicate that the epitaxial films are highly uniform. High-field and low-temperature magneto-transport measurements on these films are carried out and discussed.
