Abstract
Alkali-halide single crystals are shown to grow from molecular beams under conditions systematically different from those for metals and elemental semiconductors, for reasons related to ionic bonding. Heteroepitaxy, and the occurrence of epitaxially stabilized new alkali-halide alloys and compounds, are discussed.Keywords
