Heterostructure
In some cases two different not only crystallize in the same manner but also have same lattice constants. Both the materials grow together as a single crystal with two parts The interface of these two materials in called a heterojuction A heterojunction is an interface in a crystal of two different materials with the same lattice constant When a heterojunction is repeated at regular intervals, we get the heterostructure.
