Summary :

We have succeeded in highly selective growth and positioning of Si- and SiGe-quantum-dots (QDs) on SiO2 patterns by controlling the reactive area, whose surface is terminated with OH bonds for Si nucleation in low-pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD). The selective growth of QDs on thermally grown SiO2 line-patterns was demonstrated in LPCVD of SiH4 and GeH4 just after Si nucleation by controlling the early stages of Si2H6-LPCVD, which indicates effectively enhanced initial nucleation on OH-terminated SiO2 surface and suppression of the nucleation and growth of dots on as-grown SiO2 surface during Si2H6-LPCVD prior to SiH4-LPCVD.
