摘要
We have performed real-time monitoring of Ge thin film growth on a hydrogen-terminated Si(001) surface at growth temperatures ranging from room temperature to 350 degreesC, to clarify the influence of hydrogen atoms on Ge/Si(001) heteroepitaxy. Hydrogen atoms segregated to the surface and a portion of them desorbed from the growth front during Ge deposition, depending on the growth temperature. The existence of hydrogen atoms on the growth front increased the growth temperature for Ge/Si(001) heteroepitaxy, while the flatness of the deposited Ge thin film was improved, indicating that hydrogen atoms suppress the surface migration of deposited Ge atoms.
