METHODS OF CONTROLLING MORPHOLOGY DURING EPITAXIAL LAYER FORMATION

A first aspect of the invention provides a method of selectively forming an epitaxial layer on a substrate. The method includes heating the substrate to a temperature of less than about 800°C and employing both silane and dichlorosilane as silicon sources during epitaxial film formation. Numerous ot...
