Method for producing gallium arsenide single crystal ribbons

The single crystal growth of GaAs is highly anisotropic under certain conditions. A wafer of GaAs is masked and exposed to the vapor only through a long, narrow slot in the direction. A thin ribbon of single crystal GaAs grows out of the slot at a high rate along the vector and has {111} plane major...

Zusammenfassung:The single crystal growth of GaAs is highly anisotropic under certain conditions. A wafer of GaAs is masked and exposed to the vapor only through a long, narrow slot in the direction. A thin ribbon of single crystal GaAs grows out of the slot at a high rate along the vector and has {111} plane major faces and {110} plane edges. This ribbon is flexible. A H2-AsCl3-Ga epitaxy system is modified to permit retraction of the ribbon as it grows and thus the production of long ribbons.
