Low-Temperature and High-Speed Fabrication of Nanocrystalline Ge Films on Cu Substrates Using Sub-Torr-Pressure Plasma Sputtering

We fabricated nanocrystalline Ge films using radio-frequency (RF) magnetron plasma sputtering deposition under a high Ar-gas pressure. The Ge nanograins changed from amorphous to crystalline when the distance between the Ge sputtering target and the substrate was decreased to 5 mm and the RF input p...
