Abstract :
Using metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) selective area epitaxy (SAE) it is possible to grow different layer thicknesses and compositions on different areas of a wafer in a single growth step. This makes possible the integration of discrete devices and enables the fabrication of advanced devices.
