Abstract
Si 0.875-y Ge 0.125 C y ternary alloy films were grown on Si by ion implantation of C into Si 0.875 Ge 0.125 layers and subsequent solid phase epitaxy. It was shown that C atoms were nearly incorporated into substitutional sites and no SiC was formed in the SiGeC films by optimal two-step annealing. There is a prominent effect of C contents on carrier transport properties. Compared with strained Si 0.875 Ge 0.125 film, enhanced Hall mobility has been obtained in partially and fully strain compensated Si 0.875-y Ge 0.125 C y layer due to the reduction of lattice strain.
