Production of Semiconducting III–V Single Crystals: Current Status and Outlook

  • Published:
Russian Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

The current status of and outlook for the worldwide production of semiconducting III–V single crystals, primarily gallium arsenide, are examined. Particular emphasis is placed on improving production technologies and reaching head positions in the vertical crystallization technology.
