Zirconium Aided Epitaxial Growth of InSe on InP(111) Substrates
-
Abstract
Layered material indium selenide (InSe) is a promising candidate for building next-generation electronic and photonic devices. We report a zirconium aided MBE growth of this van der Waals material. When co-depositing zirconium and selenium onto an indium phosphide substrate with a substrate temperature of 400℃ at a constant zirconium flux rate of 0.01 ML/min, the polymorphic InSe layer emerges on top of the insulating ZrSe layer. Different archetypes, such as InSe, -InSe and -InSe, are found in the InSe layers. A negative magnetoresistance of 40% at 2 K under 9 T magnetic field is observed. Such an InSe/ZrSe heterostructure with good lattice-matching may serve as a candidate for device applications. -
