— SrS:Ce thin films have been grown by gas‐source molecular‐beam epitaxy (GSMBE) for the development of high‐luminance, high‐efficiency electroluminescent (EL) flat‐panel displays. The growth conditions have been systematically investigated as a function of growth temperature, S to Sr flux ratio, Ce concentration, and ZnS and Mn co‐evaporation. Single‐crystal SrS and high‐quality SrS:Ce layers were successfully grown on GaAs and glass substrates, respectively, without a post‐annealing process at temperatures as low as 600°C. It was found that the grain size was greatly increased by co‐doping with Ga 2 S 3 during the growth, providing a possible means to further decrease the growth temperature.
