Hydrogen-induced platelets in Ge — •Martin Hiller, Edward Lavrov, and Jörg Weber — Institut für Angewandte Physik - Halbleiterphysik, TU Dresden, 01062 Dresden
Germanium treated in hydrogen and/or deuterium plasmas has been investigated by means of Raman scattering at RT. Two Raman lines at ∼2000 and 4150 cm−1 are observed after H-plasma treatment at 150∘C. The former is identified as local vibrational modes (LVMs) of Ge–H bonds, whereas the latter was shown to originate from a LVM of H2. Polarization Raman measurements revealed that both lines possess a trigonal symmetry. Based on this and the similarity of the two signals in Ge and Si we identify the 2000 cm−1 line as hydrogen-induced {111} platelets, whereas the 4150 cm−1 line belongs to H2 trapped within these platelets.
