GALLIUM ARSENIDE DENDRITE SINGLE CRYSTAL PROGRAM

Abstract

A 7 in. exploratory dendrite pulling furnace was put into operation. Construction of a 24 in. puller continues. GaAs solar cells were made by an open tube diffusion process. Preliminary results have been obtained in an investigation of the feasiility of producing a graded band gap by open tube diffusion of P into GaAs. (Author)
