Abstract :
This work presents successful fabrication of uniform 150 and 200 mm strained-Si/SiGe-on-insulator wafers by using the Ge-condensation process and discusses some integration issues. Epitaxial growth of both SiGe and Si films was performed at 600 °C in 1 Pa by a mixture of SiH4, GeH4, and H2 using LPCVD system with vertical reactor type. CMOS devices were also fabricated to examine the material quality of the 150 and 200 mm SSOI wafers and commercially available SOI. Poly-Si gate CMOS process with 10 nm thick gate oxide was employed in this work.
