Abstract(in English) This paper describes a mechanism of the growth mode transition from layer-by-layer growth to three dimensional island formation due to the large lattice mismatch.The island formation and strain relaxation of GaAs heteroepitaxial growth onto GaP(001)by molecular beam epitaxy is studied by means of an analysis of the reflection high-energy electron diffraction(RHEED)pattem. Oscillation of lattice parameter of the growing film during layer- by-layer growth is explained by a model which considers an elastic strain relaxation within coherent islands.Oscillation of diffraction intensity of specular spot indicates crifical thickness of the growth mode transition in-creases as the growth rate increases.Change of the RHEED intensity profile reveals transformafion of the film structure from layer to island and relaxation of the misfit strain even after the growth has stopped. The result shows kinetically limited metastable structure of the GaAs film.The increase of the critical thickness is explained by a surpassing of the formation rate of layer over that of island.
