  • Abstract
    Chemical beam epitaxy (CBE), an offshoot of molecular-beam epitaxy (MBE) and metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MO-CVD), is described. It combines the beam nature of MBE and the control and use of all-vapor source as in MO-CVD. The growth kinetics of all three processes are examined, and their advantages and disadvantages are considered. The monolayer thickness control capabilities of CBE are highlighted. Device applications of CBE are discussed.<>
