  • METHODS FOR MAKING THIN LAYERS OF CRYSTALLINE MATERIALS
    Publication number: 20130203236
    Abstract: Methods for making growth templates for the epitaxial growth of compound semiconductors and other materials are provided. The growth templates are thin layers of single-crystalline materials that are themselves grown epitaxially on a substrate that includes a thin layer of sacrificial material. The thin layer of sacrificial material, which creates a coherent strain in the single-crystalline material as it is grown thereon, includes one or more suspended sections and one or more supported sections.
    Type: Application
