Abstract: In this paper, we define the transition semi-wave solution of the following reaction diffusion equation with free boundaries �egin{equation}label{0.1} left{ �egin{aligned} u_{t}=u_{xx}+f(t,x,u), &tinReal, x<h(t), u(t,h(t))=0, &tinReal, h^{prime}(t)=-mu u_{x}(t,h(t)), &tinReal, end{aligned} ight. end{equation} In the homogeneous case, i.e., $f(t,x,u)=f(u)$, under the hypothesis ${\displaystyle }$ f(u)in {C}^{1}([0,1]), f(0)=f(1)=0, f^{prime}(1)<0, f(u)<0 ext{for} u>1, ${\displaystyle }$ we prove that the semi-wave connecting $1$ and $0$ is unique provided it exists. Furthermore, we prove that any bounded transition semi-wave connecting $1$ and 0 is exactly the semi-wave. In the cases where $f$ is KPP-Fisher type and almost periodic in time (space), i.e., $f(t,x,u)=u(c(t)-u)$ (resp. $u(a(x)-u)$) with $c(t)$ (resp. $a(x)$) being almost periodic, applying totally different method, we also prove any bounded transition semi-wave connecting the unique almost periodic positive solution of $u_t=u(c(t)-u)$ (resp. $u_{xx}+u(a(x)-u)=0$) and $0$ is exactly the unique almost periodic semi-wave. Finally, we provide an example of the heterogeneous equation to show the existence of the transition semi-wave without any global mean speeds.
