Abstract

A method of forming a dielectric layer on a supporting structure of III-V material having a clean and atomically ordered surface to be coated with a dielectric layer including the step of depositing a layer of Ga.sub.2 O.sub.3, having a sublimation temperature, on the surface of the supporting structure by evaporation using a high purity single crystal of material including Ga.sub.2 O.sub.3 and a second oxide with a melting point greater than 700.degree. C. above the sublimation temperature of the Ga.sub.2 O.sub.3. The evaporation can be performed by any one of thermal evaporation, electron beam evaporation, and laser ablation.
