Abstract

A process is provided for the VPE growth of III/V compounds such as Al.sub.x Ga.sub.1-x As in which the group III elements are transported into the reaction zone in the form of organometallic compounds in the presence of a gaseous halogen or hydrogen halide such as hydrogen chloride (HCl).
