本文采用电子束蒸发法,室温下在Si(400)的基片上生长含锗(Ge)填埋层的非晶硅薄膜,其结构为a-Si/Ge/Sisubstrate,并在真空中进行后续退火.采用Raman散射(Raman Scattering)、X射线衍射(X-ray Diffraction)、高分辨电子扫描显微镜(HRSEM)、光学显微镜和热重差热分析(DSC)等手段,研究退火后样品晶化特性和晶化机理.结果表明,室温下生长的含有250 nm Ge填埋层的生长态样品在400℃退火5h,薄膜基本全部实现晶化,并表现出明显的Si (111)择优取向.样品分别在400℃、500℃、600℃和700℃退火后薄膜的横向光学波的波峰均在519cm-1附近,半高宽大约为6.1 cm-1,且均在Si(111)方向高度择优生长.退火温度为600℃的样品对应的晶粒尺寸约为20 μm.然而,在相同的薄膜结构(a-Si/Ge/Si substrate)的前提下,当把生长温度提高到300℃时,温度高达到700℃退火时间5h后,薄膜依然是非晶硅状态.差热分析表明,室温生长的样品,在后续退火过程中伴随界面应力的释放,从而诱导非晶硅薄膜重结晶成多晶硅薄膜.
