Abstract
A method of fabrication of low dislocation single crystal indium-doped gallium arsenide, and improved crystal structure. The method is an improved liquid encapsulant Czochralski process with an indium doping level of 5.times.10.sup.19 to 3.times.10.sup.20 indium atoms per cubic centimeter incorporated into the large diameter, long single crystal. The initial melt of elemental indium, gallium, and arsenic contain about 1 atom percent of indium, and inclusion of the indium permits high yield growth of crystals with desired near stoichiometric or slightly arsenic rich composition which exhibit the desired electrical characteristics.
