1. Crystal Properties and Growth of Semiconductors;What distinguishes semiconductors? ?- resistance/resistivity - crystalline structure ;Figure 1: Electrical conductivities of some common materials.;*Conductivity of semiconductor material can be varied over orders of magnitude by changes in -temperature -optical excitation -impurity content;The Portion of Periodic Table Where Semiconductors Occur ;Binary compounds: GaAs, GaP, GaN, CdTe, InP etc. Ternary compounds: AlGaAs, GaAsP, HgCdTe, etc. Quaternary compounds: InGaAsP, AlGaInAs,etc.;1.2. Crystal Lattices;The atoms making up the CRYSTAL are
