The contact phenomena between the liquid phase and the substrate during LPE of A3B5 compounds

A theory is developed on phenomena which take place at the interface between the liquid phase and the substrate which are contacted before growth. In general the substrate lattice constant may be different from the lattice constant of the solid solution, which is in equilibrium with the liquid phase...

Summary:A theory is developed on phenomena which take place at the interface between the liquid phase and the substrate which are contacted before growth. In general the substrate lattice constant may be different from the lattice constant of the solid solution, which is in equilibrium with the liquid phase. As a result this liquid phase should be supercooled (supersaturated) to obtain quasi-equilibrium with the substrate.
