Silicon-germanium nanostructures with high germanium concentration

The impact of nucleation conditions on the quality of epitaxial layers of germanium and GeSi alloys containing a high Ge mole fraction grown on (100) silicon substrates using electron-beam epitaxy is considered. The Ge x S 1 -x /Ge superlattices are grown on a Ge y Si 1 -y ( x > y ) relaxed buffe...

Summary:The impact of nucleation conditions on the quality of epitaxial layers of germanium and GeSi alloys containing a high Ge mole fraction grown on (100) silicon substrates using electron-beam epitaxy is considered. The Ge x S 1 -x /Ge superlattices are grown on a Ge y Si 1 -y ( x > y ) relaxed buffer layer. X-ray diffractometry, atomic force microscopy and Auger spectroscopy are the main techniques used to study the properties of the grown structures.
