Research Abstract |
We have developed a new technique to form fully relaxed SiGe buffer layers, for fabrication of strained SiGe heterostructure devices. This technique has utilized an ion implantation method. Extremely thin (~100nm) SiGe buffer layers with almost full strain relaxation were obtained by Ar ion implantation into Si substrates before SiGe growth. The amount of strain relaxation was found to depend on ion dose and implantation energy, indication that ion-implantation-induced defects play an important role in strain relaxation.
