Abstract :
Epitaxial growth of Ni germanosilicide on relaxed SiGe (30% Ge content) substrate has been achieved by using 3 nm Al interlayer. This epitaxial layer shows a very good uniformity and smooth interface and surface. The epitaxial layer and the SiGe substrate match very well and no misfit dislocation is found at the interface.
