    Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a method for detecting in real time doping characteristics, which grasps the change of doping concentration and growth speed insitu every moment and can precisely control growth variables. SOLUTION: A compound semiconductor substrate 130 is set in a growth chamber 100 of an epitaxial growth equipment, and a a compound semiconductor layer of double structure is grown by injecting reaction gas. The surface of the compound semiconductor substrate 130 in the growth chamber 100 is simultaneously scanned by using helium-neon laser light and diode laser light from a laser equipment 10. The respective reflected lights are detected by a photo detector 20. By analyzing the detection results with a computer 30, the change of the reflectivity of the reflected laser light and the change of the refractive index of an epitaxial layer are analyzed. Thereby the doping concentration and the growth speed of the growing compound semiconductor are analyzed in real time.
