Popis: Maskless selective growth of Be-doped GaAs films was performed by using a low-energy (30–200 eV) Be–Ga focused ion beam (FIB) with the irradiation of As4 molecular beam simultaneously. As a result, the selective p-type films of GaAs were grown successfully. Moreover, it was found that irradiation damages could be minimized and the surface morphology was improved by using the low-energy FIB. A p–n junction was formed on n+-type GaAs substrate by maskless selective growth for the first time. The I–V characteristics of the sample confirmed successful p–n structure formation. These results indicate this method would be suitable for making maskless selective micro-device fabrication.
