Scientific paper

Atomic layer epitaxy (ALE) has been investigated as an alternative to the currently used thin film deposition techniques. ALE is believed to produce multilayer X-ray optics (MXOs) with smooth, uniform layers and very small d-spacings (i.e., less than about twelve angstroms). Two types of ALE have been considered: ALE using molecular beam epitaxy (ALE/MBE) and ALE using chemical vapor deposition (ALE/CVD). It has been suggested that ALE/CVD is the better technique for depositing the required multilayers, especially when the metal-organic compounds are volatile, in which case the deposition is denoted as ALE/MOCVD. The compounds can be deposited at relatively low temperatures, and allow photoassisted deposition for producing patterned structures. The design of an ALE/MOCVD reactor is also discussed.
