Abstract The evolution of the surface morphology of a pseudomorphic Ge film on Si upon irradiation with its low-energy (230 eV) ions during heteroepitaxy from molecular beam has been studied experimentally by reflection high-energy electron diffraction. It has been found that irradiation with a continuous ion beam leads to a decrease in the critical Ge film thickness at which a transition from two-dimensional layer-by-layer to three-dimensional growth takes place. Exposure to pulsed ion irradiation (0.5 s) at instants of time that correspond to a fractional surface coverage more than 0.5 enhances the reflection intensity, which corresponds to a decrease in the roughness of the growth surface.
