Abstract
The GaAs epitaxial layers were grown on Si(100) substrates by molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) using the two-step method. The Si(100) substrates were cleaned with three different surface cleaning methods of vacuum heating, As-beam exposure, and Ga-beam deposition at the substrate temperature of $800^{\circ}C$ in the MBE growth chamber. Growth temperature and thickness of the GaAs epitaxial layer were $800^{\circ}C$ and $1{\mu}m$, respectively. The surface structure and properties were investigated by reflection high-energy electron diffraction (RHEED), AFM (Atomic force microscope), DXRD (Double crystal x-ray diffraction), PL (Photoluminescence), and PR (Photoreflectance). From RHEED, the surface structure of GaAs epitaxial layer grown on Si(100) substrate with Ga-beam deposition is ($2{\times}4$). The GaAs epitaxial layer grown on Si(100) substrate with Ga-beam deposition has a high quality.
