摘要
Polycrystalline silicon germanium (Si1-xGex) films were characterized using x-ray diffraction (XRD) and Raman spectroscopy techniques. The XRD results show that our films consist of Si1-xGex alloy with no cluster of Ge or a Ge rich material embedded in a Si matrix. Comparison of the XRD results of RTA and furnace annealed samples for the same annealing conditions reveal that the latter allow for faster formation of the (200) and (311) crystal planes. Raman spectroscopy results indicate that our films were strain free.
