The last three decades of development in solid-state physics have been characterized by the fact that the main objects of research are increasingly not massive crystals, but thin films, multilayer thin-film systems, conducting filaments, and small-sized crystallites. The fact that quantum-size structures are currently at the center of attention is due to the intensive development in recent years of semiconductor structure manufacturing technology โ molecular beam epitaxy (which represents an improved version of the thermal evaporation technique under ultra-high vacuum conditions), nanolithography, and the discovery of the phenomenon of self-organization of nanostructures (methods of production using the effects of spontaneous formation of nanostructures).
