Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) takes advantage of crucibles indirectly heated by an electric resistance heater. These thermal sources can be used to evaporate a great variety of materials. A precise control of the evaporation rate, however, requires a temperature stability of about 1‰. Therefore, a detailed knowledge on the thermal behaviour of the source is indispensible. It is intended to present models describing the response of the source temperature to a step change in heating power and compare the results by experimental data.
