Abstract
Electron microscopy has been used to examine the nucleation and growth of the transition layer for films of ZnS, ZnSe, and ZnTe on Ge and GaAs substrates. There are distinct temperature ranges in which physical condensation and chemical interaction occur. The film tends to recrystallize during growth.
