Molecular Beam Epitaxy
Time to Read: 1m 7s
Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) is a method of depositing single crystals onto a desired surface, laying down layers of material with miniscule depths of as little as a single atom. Epitaxy is a means of depositing monocrystalline film on a monocrystalline substrate. Molecular beam epitaxy is a critical part of modern laser and semiconductor devices as well as opto-electronic, photovoltaic and magnetic applications.
