The amorphous SiGe layer was first converted into polycrystalline film by preannealing and high temperature oxidation process. The solid phase epitaxial growth occurs during further oxidation/annealing process of polycrystalline SiGe on the Si on insulator substrate. A final thickness of about 1040 Å of single crystalline SiGe is achieved with initial amorphous SiGe and SOI of thickness of 1000 and 740 Å, respectively SiGe with 60% Ge concentration was achieved on further condensation followed by cyclic annealing to eliminate the defects formed in the layer. © 2006 American Institute of Physics. | Source Title: | Applied Physics Letters | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/57442 | ISSN: | 00036951 | DOI: | 10.1063/1.2222343 |
