Abstract

A method for manufacturing a crystal comprising at least two elements wherein the proportion of at least one of the elements varies in the direction of the thickness. A CVD process is used. The proportion of the gas components from which is formed the deposition is varied with time. The invention applies to the manufacturing of Si.sub.x Ge.sub.1-x crystals.
