Thin strain-relaxed Si0.8Ge0.2 films (57.6 nm) on the 30 keV Ar+ ion implantation Si substrates for different dose (1 × 1014, 5 × 1014, 3 × 1015 cm-2) were grown by ultra high vacuum chemical vapor depo...Thin strain-relaxed Si0.8Ge0.2 films (57.6 nm) on the 30 keV Ar+ ion implantation Si substrates for different dose (1 × 1014, 5 × 1014, 3 × 1015 cm-2) were grown by ultra high vacuum chemical vapor deposition (UHVCVD) system.Rutherford backscattering/ion channeling (RBS/C), high resolution X-ray diffraction (HRXRD), Raman spectra as well as atomic force microscopy (AFM) were used to characterize these SiGe films.

Under low dose ( 1 × 1014 cm-2) and medium dose (5 × 1014 cm-2) implantation conditions, the relaxation extents of SiGe films are 60.6% and 63.6%, respectively.
