摘要: Polycrystalline SiGe etches that are selective to silicon dioxide as well needed for flexibility in device fabrication. A solution of NH4OH, H2O2, and H2O has been found selectivity etch polycrystalline silicon-germanium alloys over both dioxide. Optimum composition the was determined by maximizing rates films with several germanium compositions. The dependence on content, etching temperature, doping concentration reported. rate approximately exponentially proportional content. Etching be insensitive deposition method, annealing conditions films. In addition, leaves a smooth substrate surface after removal
