Abstract

The basic features of photostimulated epitaxy have been reviewed [1]. It has been demonstrated that the crystallization rates of epitaxial films during irradiation by light with wavelengths in the range 0.25–1.2μ m increase several times compared with equivalent epitaxial processes and that the substrate surface is effectively cleaned and partially recrystallized before the growth.
