In the paper, the effect of the electric field on the conditions of formation and on the period of the surface superlattice of adatoms in $n$-GaAs semiconductor is investigated. It is established that in GaAs semiconductor, an increase in the electric field strength, depending on the direction, leads to an increase or decrease of the critical temperature (the critical concentration of adatoms), at which the formation of self-organized nanostructure is possible. It is shown that in strongly alloyed $n$-GaAs semiconductor, an increase of the electric field strength leads to a monotonous change (decrease or increase depending on the direction of the electric field) of the period of self-organized surface nanostructures of adatoms.
