Centifugually formed film growth[edit]

No evidence of notability or even existence. Unsourced since its creation almost 12 years ago, and I couldn't find any reliable sources (or even any non-WP mirrors) that discuss this subject. Everymorning (talk) 18:23, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Merge new content to Epitaxy#Liquid-phase, or keep. A ~~simple~~ WP:BEFORE style search, along with correction of the misspelled title, allowed me to expand the article with 4 books, 1 conference proceedings, and 1 news article as references. The use of centrifuges in liquid-phase expitaxy seems well-established, but there isn't a great deal in the literature because of all the trade secrecy surrounding semiconductor processing. Right now it is a well-reference short stub. The LPE topic may be marginally notable. I would be fine with a keep outcome, but the material is probably better merged into Epitaxy#Liquid-phase to place it in better context. As a side note, I can hardly believe that we don't have a standalone article on LPE. --Mark viking (talk) 20:47, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

I searched for "Centrifugally formed film growth" on Google but came up with nothing. What title did you search for to find all these sources? Everymorning (talk) 20:52, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- From reading the article, I started with 'centrifugal solar cell' and learned a little. Then I refined it to 'centrifugal thin film growth', which returned some book refs and I learned some more. Then finally, I tried 'centrifugal LPE' as the most notable application of centrifuges in film growth. There is also centrifugal CVD for thin films (like diamond) but that didn't seem as notable. OK, maybe not such a simple search :-) --Mark viking (talk) 21:23, 3 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]
