Épitaxie en phase liquide [...] La cristallisation sur la surface du substrat en contact avec le liquide est essentiellement contrôlée par les échanges de matière, à l'interface substrat-solution. Elle s'effectue lorsqu'on abaisse la température correspondant à l'équilibre thermochimique avec le substrat. [...] La chute de température peut être linéaire (uniform cooling) [...] ou par paliers (step cooling). 1, record 2, French, - chute%20de%20temp%C3%A9rature%20lin%C3%A9aire
