Epitaxy And Applications Of Si Based Heterostructures Volume 533

Epitaxy and Applications of Si-Based Heterostructures: Volume 533

The April 13-17, 1998 symposium held in San Francisco offered an intriguing mix of SiGe device and circuit technology, and the latest developments in SiGE materials and SiGeC alloys. The 53 papers pivot around the themes of: technologies and devices; devices, processing, and characterization; photonics and optoelectronics; epitaxy of quantum structures; SiGeC alloys; and epitaxy of SiGe/ related materials. A sample title from each of the six parts includes: carrier transport and velocity overshoot in strained Si on SiGe heterostructures, device and fabrication issues of high-performance Si/SiGe FETS, photonic crystals based on macroporous silicon, stacked layers of self-assembled Ge islands, photoluminescence in strain compensated Si/SiGeC multiple quantum wells, and a novel layer-by-layer heteroepitaxy of germanium on silicon (100) surface.

Silicon-Germanium Strained Layers and Heterostructures

The study of Silicone Germanium strained layers has broad implications for material scientists and engineers, in particular those working on the design and modelling of semi-conductor devices. Since the publication of the original volume in 1994, there has been a steady flow of new ideas, new understanding, new Silicon-Germanium (SiGe) structures and new devices with enhanced performance. Written for both students and senior researchers, the 2nd edition of Silicon-Germanium Strained Layers and Heterostructures provides an essential up-date of this important topic, describing in particular the recent developments in technology and modelling.* Fully-revised and updated 2nd edition incorporating important recent breakthroughs and a complete literature review* The extensive bibliography of over 400 papers provides a comprehensive and coherent overview of the subject* Appropriate for students and senior researchers
