Beyond production lines for LEDs, lasers and transistors, compound semiconductors are still the subject of advanced material research. New classes of materials (such as diluted nitrides), structures (such as quantum dot cascade lasers) and principles (such as intermediate band solar cells) are hot topics at universities and research institutes. LayTec’s in-situ metrology tools are essential to perform cutting edge research in these fields. They provide real-time access to the genesis of new materials and structures like:

• dilute nitrides
• III-Vs on silicon
• lattice constant engineering
• antimonide based structures
