  • Abstract
    In this paper, we report the effect of two Si precursors, SiH4 and SiCl2H2 on the micro-loading, morphology and throughput for selective epitaxial growth of Si and Si1-xGex (0<;x<;1) on recessed or elevated source/drain junctions. We find that the pattern dependency (micro-loading), growth direction (morphology) and growth rate of selective epitaxial film of Si or Si1-xGex can be engineered by carefully adjusting the ratio of partial pressures of SiH4 and SiCl2H2.
