Single wavelength ellipsometry was used to monitor the CVD growth of Si(1-x)Gex alloys on Si and to evaluate the effect of sample irradiation by KrF laser pulses, performed during or after the CVD growth. The information obtained was correlated with AFM analysis results in order to optimize the growth parameters for an improved morphological quality of the alloy layers.

Abstract

Single wavelength ellipsometry was used to monitor the CVD growth of Si(1-x)Gex alloys on Si and to evaluate the effect of sample irradiation by KrF laser pulses, performed during or after the CVD growth. The information obtained was correlated with AFM analysis results in order to optimize the growth parameters for an improved morphological quality of the alloy layers.
