摘要
A metastable SiGe-on-insulator structure is realized by a high-dose Ge-74(+) ion implantation in the overlayer of silicon-on-insulator followed by solid phase epitaxial regrowth. Studies of the optical properties of the germanium-implanted and post-implantation annealed layers with 18% peak germanium concentration were carried out using photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy. The electrical integrity of the strained layer was qualitatively inferred from the pseudo-mosfet characterization technique. The PL results show that the broadband (BB) emission related to,germanium implantation damage can be completely eliminated by post-implantation thermal treatment. PL spectra and measured transconductance of the sample heat-treated at 500 degrees C indicate conclusively that a defect-free strained Sice layer has been formed. However, samples heat-treated at higher temperatures show degradation in the charge carrier lifetime, a new BE emission with 0.816 eV peak energy and an emergence of defect related emission at 0.870 eV for samples annealed at and above 900 degrees C.
