摘要
The Er-doped Ge1-xSnx thin films with different Sn contents were prepared on Ge buffered Si substrates by thermal evaporation. The effect of Er doping on the crystallization of Ge1-xSnx films at different annealing temperatures was studied. It is demonstrated that Er doping can increase the critical crystallization temperature and greatly reduce the surface roughness of high temperature annealed Ge1-xSnx thin films.
