Influence of the deposition parameters on the growth of SiGe nanocrystals embedded in Al2O3 matrix

Si1-xGex nanocrystals (NCs), embedded in Al2O3 matrix, were fabricated on Si (100) substrates by RF magnetron sputtering technique with following annealing procedure at 800 C, in nitrogen atmosphere. The presence of Si1-xGex NCs was confirmed by grazing incidence X-ray diffraction (GIXRD), grazing i...
