Epitaxial growth and electronic properties of semiconductor thin films are becoming increasingly important for fundamental and applied research and for device applications. This book contains a comprehensive collection of over 1500 references covering the first 25 years of molecular beam epitaxy of III-V compound semiconductors. Molecular beam epitaxy is a versatile thin- film growth technique which emerged from the 'Three-temperature method' de- veloped in the 1950s and from surface kinetic studies performed in the 1960s. III-V semiconductors such as GaAs, AlAs, (Galn)As, InP, etc. , play an important role in the application to optoelectronic and high-speed devices. Over the past three years the technology of molecular beam epitaxy has spread rapidly to most major research and development laboratories through- out the world, and an increasing number of highly refined III-V semiconduc- tor structures with exactly tailored electronic properties have been pro- duced and explored for fundamental studies as well as for device appl ica- tion.The comprehensive bibliography on this dramatically expanding topic helps chemists, engineers, materials scientists, and physicists working in semiconductor research and development areas to sort out the important lit- erature of their particular interest. A direct reproduction of the output of a computer printer has been used to enable rapid publication and to keep printing costs low.
