Abstract

We review the results obtained in recent years by various authors with regard to the physics of complex semiconductor crystals, superlattices, and structures with quantum wells and barriers. We discuss the production processes for nonlinear optic crystals which produce high quality materials, and the changes in the electrophysical properties of a large group of materials when intrinsic defects are introduced. We analyze the characteristics of lateral semiconductor structure growth and its relationship to the characteristics of the usual epitaxial growth, as well as the theory of electron quantum processes in various quantum well structures, and we present an analysis of the vibrational states of a large group of crystals and superstructures.
