DEFINITION

Classification: 117/22

Forming adjoining crystals of different compositions (e.g., junction):

(under subclass 21) Subject matter in which adjoining single-crystals* of different composition are formed, either simultaneously or successively.

(1) Note. For placement in this subclass, a reference must claim a process in which both of the adjoining single-crystals* are grown in the claimed process.
