Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The goal of this thesis is to develop and understand processing conditions that improve the surface morphology and reduce the dislocation density in limited-area heteroepitaxy of Ge and SiGe on Si (100) substrates. Low pressure chemical vapor deposition was investigated for two limiting cases of strain states: thin, strained, high Ge content SiGe films for transistor applications, and thick, relaxed Ge films, for potential optoelectronic applications. Selective epitaxial growth of thin, high Ge-content, strained SiGe on oxide-patterned silicon was studied, specifically the effect of growth area on the critical thickness. The critical thickness of Sio.33Geo.67 formed by selective epitaxial growth in areas of 2.3 x 2.3 [mu]m was found to be 8.5 nm, which is an increase of 2x compared to the critical thickness observed for growth in large areas (i.e. for non-selective epitaxy). The sources of misfit dislocation nucleation in selective growth were analyzed, and misfit generation from the SiGe pattern edges, due to effects such as local strain concentration, Si surface shape near the oxide boundary, and preferential SiGe growth near the pattern edge were investigated. Thin, smooth Ge-on-Si films were developed and the effect of growth conditions on film morphology was examined to find an optimum temperature and pressure for smooth film surface (365 °C and 60 torr). A period of delayed epitaxial growth, or "incubation time" was observed, and a Si surface treatment technique, consisting of a short SiGe pulse, with negligible SiGe thickness, was employed to realize uniform Ge films with low surface roughness (RMS

Download or read book Science and Technology of Semiconductor On Insulator Structures and Devices Operating in a Harsh Environment written by Denis Flandre and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2006-05-06 with total page 358 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This proceedings volume archives the contributions of the speakers who attended the NATO Advanced Research Workshop on “Science and Technology of Semiconductor-On-Insulator Structures and Devices Operating in a Harsh Environment” held at the Sanatorium Puscha Ozerna, th th Kyiv, Ukraine, from 25 to 29 April 2004. The semiconductor industry has maintained a very rapid growth during the last three decades through impressive technological achievements which have resulted in products with higher performance and lower cost per function. After many years of development semiconductor-on-insulator materials have entered volume production and will increasingly be used by the manufacturing industry. The wider use of semiconductor (especially silicon) on insulator materials will not only enable the benefits of these materials to be further demonstrated but, also, will drive down the cost of substrates which, in turn, will stimulate the development of other novel devices and applications. In itself this trend will encourage the promotion of the skills and ideas generated by researchers in the Former Soviet Union and Eastern Europe and their incorporation in future collaborations.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Carbon (C) and Silicon Germanium (SiGe) work like a magic sauce. At least in small concentrations, they make everything taste better. It is remarkable enough that SiGe, a new material, and the heterobipolar transistor, a new device, appear on the brink of impacting the exploding wireless market. The addition of C to SiGe, albeit in small concentrations, looks to have breakthrough potential. Here, at last, is proof that materials science can put a rocket booster on the silicon-mind, the silicon transistor. Scientific excitement arises, as always, from the new possibilities a multicomponent materials system offers. Bandgaps can be changed, strains can be tuned, and properties can be tailored. This is catnip to the materials scientist. The wide array of techniques applied here to the SiGeC system bear testimony to the ingenious approaches now available for mastering the complexities of new materials

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The industrial relevance of SiGe has increased dramatically in the last few years with the manufacture of heterojunction bipolar circuits for the commercial wireless and datacomms markets by IBM and TEMIC, with over 20 companies planning manufacture in the near future. Major high technology companies see the development and use of SiGe as an important part of their strategy, so that there is a strong impetus to improve its characterization and exploitation. This liberally illustrated and fully indexed volume distils in a homogeneous, structured way the expertise of some 40 invited authors to comprehensively review the whole range of properties as well as SiGe: C, self-assembled nanostructures, quantum effects and device trends. The book contains 75% more text than Prof. Kasper's earlier book Properties of strained and relaxed SiGe (INSPEC, IEE, 1995), thoroughly updates its content and adds many new topics.

This book was released on 2012-04-12 with total page 356 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The International Symposium on Ultra-Clean Processing of Semiconductor Surfaces (UCPSS) is a bi-annual conference which has been organized by IMEC since 1992. Volume is indexed by Thomson Reuters CPCI-S (WoS). The scope of the symposium includes all issues related to contamination, cleaning and surface preparation in mainstream large-scale Integrated Circuit manufacture. At first, silicon was typically the main semiconductor of interest. As other semiconducting materials such as SiGe, SiC, Ge and III-V compounds came under consideration for future devices, the scope was broadened so as to include these materials. Parallelling the fast-moving CMOS industry, the photovoltaic industry has also recognized the need to make improvements in cleaning. Moreover, in order to promote these semiconductor cleaning activities in PV, it was decided to add a special session focused on this topic.
