The effects of Sb doping on the crystalline and electrical characteristics of Ge1− x Sn x epitaxial layer were investigated in detail. We found that Sb doping with a concentration of 1020 cm−3 remarkably improves the crystallinity, and surface uniformity of the Ge1− x Sn x epitaxial layer by changing the growth mode by the surfactant effect of Sb atoms. Low-temperature Ge1− x Sn x growth with in situ Sb doping realizes a very high electron concentration of 1020 cm−3, which is above the thermal equilibrium solid solubility, as a result of suppressing Sb segregation and precipitation.}, pages = {04EB13--04EB13}, title = {Effect of in situ Sb doping on crystalline and electrical characteristics of n-type Ge1− x Sn x epitaxial layer}, volume = {55}, year = {2016} }
