Abstract :
In these experiments 19 nm of Si0.73Ge0.27 (SiGe) have been deposited by CVD on patterned (001) Si wafers. The patterns are oriented either along <;100>; or along <;110>; directions in order to obtain information on anisotropic effects.The epitaxial SiGe has been annealed one minute under H2 atmosphere at 750°C, and the morphology has been characterized mainly by SEM, TEM and AFM.
