Abstract The initial growth stage of GaSb on GaAs (001) by low pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) is investigated. The dependence of the nucleation on growth temperature, growth pressure, and vapor V/Ⅲ ratio is studied by means of atomic force microscopy. The nucleation characteristics include the island density, size, and size uniformity distribution. The nucleation mechanism is discussed by the effects of growth temperature, growth pressure, and vapor V/Ⅲ ratio on the density, size, and size uniformity of GaSb islands. With the growth temperature increasing from 500 ℃ to 610 ℃ and the growth pressure increasing from 50 mbar to 1000 mbar (1 mbar = 105 Pa), the island density first increases and then decreases; with the V/Ⅲ ratio increasing from 0.5 to 3, the trend is contrary.

Online attention
Altmetric calculates a score based on the online attention an article receives. Each coloured thread in the circle represents a different type of online attention. The number in the centre is the Altmetric score. Social media and mainstream news media are the main sources that calculate the score. Reference managers such as Mendeley are also tracked but do not contribute to the score. Older articles often score higher because they have had more time to get noticed. To account for this, Altmetric has included the context data for other articles of a similar age.
