Abstract
Primary molecules are formed by sublimation in a sublimation chamber (2), they are then transferred at a transfer flow-rate to a decomposition head (10) at a higher temperature, and they are transformed therein into secondary molecules that are lighter in weight to form molecular beams (16). In accordance with the invention, the transfer flow-rate is adjusted by adjusting an effective vector flow-rate which is the vector flow-rate of a vector gas inserted into the sublimation chamber via a feed tube (26) and sucked out via a suction tube (30). The invention applies, in particular, to making III-V type semiconductor components by molecular beam epitaxy.
