Abstract
A novel method of making articles that comprise a periodic heteroepitaxial semiconductor structure is disclosed. The method pertains to growth of the periodic structure by MBE, CVD or similar growth techniques, and involves periodically changing the substrate temperature. For instance, a periodic multilayer GaAs/AlGaAs is grown by MBE, with the substrate temperature cycled between 600.degree. C. and 700.degree. C. The novel method can produce multilayer structures of uniformly high material quality.
