Abstract

High-crystalline-quality B-doped SiGe films are epitaxial-ly grown on Si(100) substrates using the Si-GeH4-B2H6 MBE system. Both Ge and B profiles in the B-doped SiGe layer are readily controlled using the present system. This technique should be very promising in the bandgap engineering of SiGe base HBTs.
