Dynamic formation of spherical voids crossing linear defects
Youcef A. Bioud, Maxime Rondeau, Abderraouf Boucherif +3
A predictive model for the evolution of porous Ge layer upon thermal treatment is reported. We represent an idealized etched dislocation core as an axially symmetric elongated hole…

Low cost Ge/Si virtual substrate through dislocation trapping by nanovoids
Youcef A. Bioud, Abderraouf Boucherif, Etienne Paradis +3
A low-cost method to reduce the threading disloca-tions density (TDD) in relaxed germanium (Ge) epilayers grown on silicon (Si) substrates is presented. Ge/Si sub-strate was treate…
