Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor materials and relates to a high-quality strained Ge / Si 1-x Ge x (0.6≤x≤0.7) superlattice structure and its preparation method. Background technique [0002] With the development of science and technology, human beings have entered into a highly electronic and information society. Information transmission, processing and storage will require unprecedented scale and speed. In the semiconductor industry, semiconductor devices dominated by Si materials have been developed for more than half a century. With the continuous shrinking of the feature size of semiconductor devices, the processing technology of a single transistor has gradually reached the dual limits of physics and technology. How to realize the above-mentioned leap in electronic information technology has become one of the major scientific problems faced in this century. The research on the integration of silicon-based microelec...
