The a-Ge thin films were deposited onto nanostructured Si substrates via low-cost thermal evaporation method. Then, the films were annealed in a furnace at temperatures ranging from 400 °C to 1000 °C resultin – 800 °C. The crystalline structure of the SiGe layer is improved as a function of increased temperature. This is shown by the low FWHM of about 5.27 as compared to the commercially available Ge substrates where the FWHM value is about 5.06. This method also produces more relax Ge layer where the strain value is 0.261. 2022 2022-11-23T03:44:53Z 2022-11-23T03:44:53Z 2022-10 Article International Journal of Nanoelectronics and Materials, vol.15 (4), 2022, pages 303-318 1985-5761 (Printed) 1997-4434 (Online) http://dspace.unimap.edu.my:80/xmlui/handle/123456789/77147 http://ijneam.unimap.edu.my en Universiti Malaysia Perlis (UniMAP)
