epitaxy |
Also found in: Wikipedia | 0.06 sec. |
epitaxyProcess of growing a crystal of a particular orientation on top of another crystal. If both crystals are of the same material, the process is known as homoepitaxy; if the materials are different, it is known as heteroepitaxy. Common types of epitaxy include vapour phase, liquid phase, and solid phase, according to the source of the atoms being arranged on the substrate. Epitaxy is most frequently employed in the production of semiconductor wafers for use in the creation of integrated circuits. |

| Meanwhile, SDK's Hybrid PPD process, based on the epitaxial growth technology accumulated over many years, provides layers of high-quality crystals and provides higher production efficiency compared with the conventional MOCVD process. Kopin has been enhancing the performance, reliability, and manufacturability of GaN transistor structures by capitalizing on its know-how in epitaxial growth of state-of-the-art GaN materials and its extensive experience with volume manufacturing of III-V materials. The solar cells are manufactured in a single epitaxial growth process, which requires excellent control and repeatability from the MOCVD system. |
