Abstract
The invention relates to a method for the epitaxial growth from the gaseous phase of III-V-compounds at homogeneous and low temperature by varying the atmosphere specifically, by utilizing a neutral gas in the initial transport reaction and subsequently introducing hydrogen into the gaseous mixture in the immediate vicinity of the substrate. The temperature in the epitaxial space is homogeneous and low (600.degree. C) and the qualities of the deposited layers are considerably improved.
