Research Abstract |
By utilizing surface reaction of reactant gases under ECR Ar plasma irradiation without substrate heating, epitaxial growth of atomically flat highly strained films of Ge and Si as well as B atomic-layer doped Si were demonstrated. Moreover, by lowering of the plasma energy in the epitaxial growth, it was clarified that plasma damage and surface B reduction by Ar plasma irradiation can be effectively suppressed and it is quite important to increase of strain and B concentration in the B atomic-layer doped films.
