[摘要]：In this letter, we propose an atmospheric pressure-chemical vapor deposition technique to grow metastable GeSn epitaxial layers on Ge. We report the growth of defect free fully strained undoped and in-situ B doped GeSn layers on Ge substrates with Sit contents up to 8%. Those metastable layers stay fully strained after 30 min anneal in N-2 at 500 degrees C.; Ge-Sn interdiffusion is seen at 500 degrees C but not at lower temperature. B is 100% active in the in-situ GeSn:B layers up to a concentration of 1.7 x 10(19) cm(-3). GeSn:B provides slightly lower Hall hole mobility values than in pure p-type Ge especially for low B concentrations. (C) 2011 American Institute of Physics [doi.10.1063/1.3645620]
