Abstract
The authors have grown thermal oxides on the silicon cap layer or modulation doped n-channel Si:SiGe quantum wells. For growth temperatures of 650°C they have observed a degradation of the low temperature electron mobility accompanied by a small increase in the sheet density. Some possible origins for this mobility degradation are discussed
