Composition Analysis of Ge/Si1-xGex: C Buffer on Silicon Measured by Planar Scanning Energy Dispersive Spectroscopy

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this work, Si, Ge element composition distribution in Ge /Si1-xGex:C /Si substrate structure has been characterized and modified by planar scanning energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The Ge /Si1-xGex:C /Si substrate samples are grown by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The accuracy of EDS value can be improved by ~ 32%. And the modified EDS results indicate the Ge distribution in the Ge/Si1-xGex:C/Si sub structure.
