Growth and structure of yttrium sesquioxide epitaxial films

The use of molecular beam epitaxy as a method for producing solid state host crystals for planar waveguide lasers has been investigated. Single crystal yttrium sesquioxide with a very high degree of structural order has been grown on R-plane sapphire substrates. The (01Ῑ2) Al₂O₃ substrates were anne...
