Thin Highly-Relaxed SiGe Induced by Ion Implantion intothe Epitaxial Substrates

Abstract
We propose an approach for preparation of thin highly-relaxed SiGe by combining ion implantation and UHV/CVD techniques.The as-yielded materials are analyzed by micro-Raman spectroscopy and atomic force microscope.The results reveal that large area,thin (100nm) SiGe layer with high relaxation (94%) is thus successfully prepared.Selective chemical etching of SiGe,with the etching rate of 254nm/min,is also performed to study the mechanism.It is found that a strained-Si layer exists at the interface between the epi-SiGe and Si substrate,which is believed to be resulted from both ion implantation and formation of a relaxed-SiGe layer.-
