Fundamentals of Epitaxy

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((NSSB,volume 210))

Abstract

This contribution introducing us to the fundamental knowledge of epitaxy is divided into three parts. In Part I the historical basis is reviewed and the geometrical aspects of epitaxy are treated. In Part II these aspects are examined from the point of view of equilibrium thermodynamics and some examples are given. In Part III references are given.
