`of semiconductor devices, such as integrated cir(cid:173)
`cuits. A device employing molecular beam epitaxy
`creates thin layers of semiconducting material by
`vaporizing the mate rial and then directing a beam
`of molecules at the substrate on w hich the layer is
`to be formed. This technique allows ve1y precise
`and very thin layers to he created.

`monitor \mon'i-t;:>r'\ 11. The device on which
`images generated by the computer's video adapter
`are displayed. The term monitor usually refers to
`a video display and its housing. The monitor is
`attached to the video adapter by a cable. See a/so
`CRT.
`monochrome \mon';J-krom'\ adj. Of, pertaining

`chrome Macintosh screens) or amber or green on
`black (as on early IBM and other monochrome
`monito rs). The term is also applied to a monitm
`that displays only variable levels of a single color,
`such as a gray-scale monitor.
`monochrome adapter \mon';:>-krom
`;J-dap ' t;Jr\
`n. A video adapter capable of generating a video
`signal for one foreground color or sometimes for
`a range of intensities in a single color, as for a
`gray-scale monitor.
