Show Abstract
Transferred‐electron oscillation in devices employing GaxIn1−xAsyP1−y as the active material has been observed. An oscillation threshold average field of (5.5–8.6) ×103 V/cm was determined for 1.05‐eV band‐gap material having x and y values of approximately 0.13 and 0.37, respectively. A pulsed device had an efficiency of 0.5% at 27.49 GHz.

Show Abstract
Selective growth of patterned GaAs and AlxGa1−xAs thin‐film structures with well‐defined optically smooth mirrorlike edges has been achieved with a Si‐mask shadowing technique for molecular beam epitaxy. Single and multilayer stripe‐mesa waveguides with widths as narrow as 1 μm, two‐dimensional waveguide tapers, and various other epilayer patterns have been fabricated using single‐level or multilevel masking. This technique has potential for use in the realization of integrated optoelectronic circuits in the GaAs/AlxGa1−xAs system.

Show Abstract
Auger spectra from a Si (111) surface with about 10 Å oxide were utilized to demonstrate that diffraction can cause Auger intensity changes of a factor of 2 even in data acquired using the cylindrical mirror analyzer. The diffraction mechanism was revealed by a comparison of spectra taken before and after small changes in crystal orientation and noting that Auger peaks from the amorphous surface oxide did not change amplitude significantly while peaks from the crystalline Si changed by large amounts. Diffraction of the ejected Auger electron was an important process because relative intensity changes among peaks within a single ionization series were large. The collected electron image resembling a Kikuchi pattern visible in the scanning mode of the Auger apparatus was used for accurately orienting the crystal.

Show Abstract
Niobium thin‐film bridges 300 Å thick, 1 μm wide, and 0.5 μm long joining two bulk films 5000 Å thick and having normal resistance of ∼1 Ω have been fabricated and used for microwave mixing at 10 GHz. They exhibit Josephson, bolometric, and multiple‐flux‐flow mixing and have useful response at 100–200 GHz. The data show in a direct way limitations imposed by flux flow and heating.
