Abstract :
The authors have demonstrated a new technique that enables defect-free SGE/ELO silicon layer fabrication by using in-situ HCl etch and H2 anneal planarization. This is significant, as now defect-free SEG/ELO silicon techniques can be used for the fabrication of low-power and high performance CMOSFETs technology with ultra-thin body/BOX layers
