Abstract

A review is given of a technique in which compound semiconductor films are produced by direct synthesis from multilayered, polymetallic films deposited onto insulating substrates and laser-irradiated in the CW or pulsed regime. Such films are characterized by a high degree of crystallinity together with optical and transport properties sufficiently close to single crystal ones to allow for various applications in optoelectronics.
