Stress relaxed buffer layer on textured silicon surface |
摘要 |
A method of forming a stress relaxed buffer layer (SRB) on a textured or grooved silicon (Si) surface and the resulting device are provided. Embodiments include forming a textured surface in an upper surface of a Si wafer; epitaxially growing a low-temperature seed layer on the textured surface of the Si wafer; depositing a SRB layer over the low-temperature seed layer; and planarizing an upper surface of the SRB layer. |

1. A method comprising:
forming a textured or V-grooved surface in an upper surface of a silicon (Si) wafer, wherein the step of forming the textured or V-grooved surface on the upper surface of the Si wafer includes:
forming pyramids in the upper surface of the Si wafer by etching, wherein the pyramids have a height less than 300 nm and a Si <111> surface; epitaxially growing a low-temperature seed layer on the textured surface of the Si wafer; depositing a stress relaxed buffer (SRB) layer over the low-temperature seed layer; and planarizing an upper surface of the SRB layer. |
