Plasma assisted doping on germanium
A method for forming a junction in a germanium (Ge) layer of a substrate includes arranging the substrate in a processing chamber. The method includes performing a plasma pretreatment on the substrate in the processing chamber for a predetermined pretreatment period using a pretreatment plasma gas mixture including hydrogen gas species. The method includes supplying a doping plasma gas mixture to the processing chamber including a phosphorous (P) gas species and an antimony (Sb) gas species. The method includes striking plasma in the processing chamber for a predetermined doping period. The method includes annealing the substrate during a predetermined annealing period to form the junction in the germanium (Ge) layer.
