Low-temperature germanium ultra-high vacuum chemical vapor deposition for back-end photonic integration

Polycrystalline germanium (poly-Ge) grown on amorphous Si (a-Si) by ultra-high vacuum chemical vapor deposition (UHVCVD) over oxide barriers at low temperatures (Tles450degC) exhibits a larger grain size and lower defect density than the as-grown poly-Ge next to the oxide barriers. Poly-Ge as deposi...
