Abstract:Low-temperature photoluminescence (PL) has been used to evaluate dopant concentration and vertical location in heterostructures consisting of strained Si0.85Ge0.15 layers on Si (001). The boron dopant profile was established to be abrupt within 1 nm on samples grown by reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition. The structure had a 20 nm thick Si0.85Ge0.15 layer which was either uniformly doped or had a 10 nm thick dopant in the adjoining Si. The PL variation with dopant displacement was described using simple… Show more
