Abstract

1,259,897. Crystal-growing. WESTERN ELECTRIC CO. Inc. 8 May, 1969 [9 May, 1968], No. 23528/69. Heading B1S. A IIIa-Va compound is grown from a source solution in a well 16 or 17, in a boat crucible 14 contained in a tippable tube 11, onto a seed wafer 24 mounted between shoulders 19 and 20 on the underside of a slidable holder 15, after tipping of the tube anticlockwise or clockwise, respectively, on a cradle (23, Fig. 1) from the inoperative position shown. Shoulder 19 or 20 thereby sweeps off surface impurities from the solution and allows the wafer to be brought into contact with clean surface of the solution. Using n- and p-type material in the respective wells and tipping the tube successively in both directions an n-p junction may be formed. The solution may be of aluminium arsenide or phosphide, or gallium aluminium arsenide or phosphide. Tellurium may be used as dopant and zinc as solvent. The wafer may be of gallium arsenide or phosphide and may have its major faces perpendicular to the (111)-axis. Growing may be effected in hydrogen.
