Zusammenfassung: | PURPOSE:To achieve accurate growth of a crystal by detecting a crystal growth state with a detection element composed of an image sensor capable of detecting a reflected high-energy electron diffraction pattern on a fluorescent screen and controlling a shutter based on the data of pattern recognition. CONSTITUTION:A crystal is grown on a substrate by a molecular beam epitaxial(MBE) apparatus 1 by placing a shutter in front of a container containing a specimen to be grown and controlling the growth of the crystal by the opening of the shutter. In the above process, the state of crystal growth is detected by a one-dimensional or two-dimensional image sensor 16 as a diffraction pattern generated on a fluorescent screen by reflected high-energy electron beam, the image is inputted into a pattern recognition device 17 and a shutter-control signal is outputted from a shutter-control apparatus 18 to a shutter-driving mechanism 15 based on the pattern recognition data. |
