STRUCTURES AND DEVICES INCLUDING GERMANIUM-TIN FILMS AND METHODS OF FORMING SAME

摘要

Methods of forming germanium-tin films using germane as a precursor are disclosed. Exemplary methods include growing films including germanium and tin in an epitaxial chemical vapor deposition reactor, wherein a ratio of a tin precursor to germane is less than 0.1. Also disclosed are structures and devices including germanium-tin films formed using the methods described herein.
