Defects reduction of Ge epitaxial film in a germanium-on-insulator wafer by annealing in oxygen ambient

A method to remove the misfit dislocations and reduce the threading dislocations density (TDD) in the germanium (Ge) epilayer growth on a silicon (Si) substrate is presented. The Ge epitaxial film is grown directly on the Si (001) donor wafer using a "three-step growth" approach in a reduc...
