Abstract

Low-temperature (≤ 350°C) formation of orientation-controlled large-grain Ge on insulating substrates is essential to achieve advanced flexible devices employing plastic substrates. To achieve this, effects of interfacial-oxide layer insertion on gold-induced crystallization (GIC) of amorphous Ge films on insulating substrates have been investigated. Consequently, (111)-oriented large-grain (20-50 μm) Ge crystals are obtained at 350°C by inserting interfacial oxide layers. It is speculated that this phenomena is attributed to suppression of random bulk nucleation of Ge in Au films.
