Abstract
Ultrahigh vacuum growth techniques are now being employed to grow single crystal films of magnetic materials. This growth, carried out in the same molecular beam epitaxy systems commonly used for the growth of semiconductor films, has yielded a variety of new materials and structures which may prove useful for integrated electronics and integrated optical device applications. Examples are given for growth on GaAs and ZnSe, including magnetic sandwiches and patterned structures.
