Abstract
We incorporate self-assembling Ge islands into Si-based
interband tunneling diodes grown by molecular beam epitaxy. The
kinetic limitations of low-temperature Ge island formation have
been overcome in the growth windows that are required to retain
sharp delta-doping profiles in the diode's active region. Ge
quantum dots are observed for growth temperatures of 360
degreesC and grown at a rate of 0.125 monolayers per minute.
Photoluminescence spectroscopy and annealing experiments
indicate three-dimensional carrier localization and phononless
radiative recombination, which confirms a dot-like electronic
structure. The Ge quantum dots have been incorporated into the
active region of delta-doped Si interband tunneling diodes.
Room temperature negative-differential-resistance is observed
and the electrical characteristics may be tuned by post-growth
rapid thermal annealing. (C) 2002 Elsevier Science B.V. All
