Reduction of threading dislocation density in Ge/Si using a heavily As-doped Ge seed layer

High quality germanium (Ge) epitaxial film is grown directly on silicon (001) substrate with 6° off-cut using a heavily arsenic (As) doped Ge seed layer. The growth steps consists of (i) growth of a heavily As-doped Ge seed layer at low temperature (LT, at 400°C), (ii) Ge growth with As gradually re...
