Vb. Ufimtsev et Vv. Arbenina, EFFECT OF RARE-EARTH ADDITIVES ON CRYSTALLIZATION OF III-V COMPOUNDS FROM GALLIUM FLUXES, Inorganic materials, 32(10), 1996, pp. 1025-1029
The effect of rare-earth additives on the liquid-phase epitaxy of III-
V compounds from gallium fluxes was examined in relation to the proper
ties of growing epilayers. interactions of the additives and impuritie
s were investigated by DTA. Criteria were established for choosing rar
e-earth additives to be used as gettering agents in the growth of III-
V epilayers.
