— ZnS films were grown on (100) Si substrates by atomic layer epitaxy (ALE) using a metal‐organic chemical vapor deposition system. We studied the growth rate as a function of the substrate temperature and the flow rates of DMZn and H 2 S. The growth rate was kept constant at 0.7 monolayers per cycle and was independent of substrate temperature in the range 125–225°C, and of the mole fractions of both DMZn and H 2 S. Although the “fractional ALE” growth does not produce a two‐dimensional surface, SEM micrographs show smooth ZnS films with the atomic ratio of S: Zn very close to unity.
