Notes:
Molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) of Si on sapphire (SOS) has dramatically different and superior properties compared to chemical vapor deposited (CVD) SOS. The strain in the Si epilayer decreases by 21%. A 40% higher electron Hall mobility occurs at room temperature. At LN2 temperatures the electron mobility increases to a level which is more indicative of bulk Si than of CVD SOS. The microtwin differential volume fraction profile is lower by more than an order of magnitude, and decreases below the detectable limit at 300 nm from the interface. The average Si/sapphire interface charge for MBE SOS is −8.0×1010 cm−2, while the interface charge of CVD SOS is 2×1012 cm−2.
