we proposed the use of $Si_2H_ 6/H_2$ chemistry for selective silicon epitaxy growth by low-pressure chemical vapor deposition(LPCVD) in the temperature range $600~710^{\circ}C$ under an ultraclean environment. As a result of ultraclean processing, an incubation period of Si deposition only on $SiO_2$ was found, and low temperature epitaxy selective deposition on Si was achieved without addition of HCI. Total gas flow rate and deposition pressure were 16.6sccm and 3.5mtorr, respectively. In this condition, we selectively obtained high-quality epitaxial Si layers of the 350~1050$\AA$ thickness. In older to extend the selectivity, we kept high pressure $H_2$ environment without $Si_2H_6$ gas for few minutes after first incubation period and then we conformed the existence of second incubation period.

This paper presents a new fabrication method of selective SiGe epitaxial growth at 650 $^{\circ}C$ on (100) silicon wafer with oxide patterns by reduced pressure chemical vapor deposition. The new method is characterized by a cyclic process, which is composed of two parts: initially, selective SiGe epitaxy layer is grown on exposed bare silicon during a short incubation time by SiH$_4$/GeH$_4$/HCl/H$_2$system and followed etching step is achieved to remove the SiGe nuclei on oxide by HCl/H$_2$system without source gas flow. As a result, we noted that the addition of HCl serves not only to reduce the growth rate on bare Si, but also to suppress the nucleation on SiO$_2$. In addition, we confirmed that the incubation period is regenerated after etching step, so it is possible to grow thick SiGe epitaxial layer sustaining the selectivity. The effect of the addition of HCl and dopants incorporation was investigated.

$Si_2H_6$가스를 이용한 LPCVD내에서의 실리콘의 선택적 에피텍시 성장을 $1000^{\circ}C$ 이하의 초청정 분위기하의 저온에서 수행하였다. HCI 첨가없이 초청정 공정으로 인한 양질의 에피텍시 Si층이 균일하게 얻어 졌으며, $SiO_2$위에 증착된 실리콘의 잠복기를 발견할 수 있었다. 단결정위의 에피텍시 층은 산화물 층위 보다 더 두껍게 증착되었다. 산소첨가로 잠복기가 20~30초간 증가하였다. 증착된 박막의 절단면과 표면 형상은 SEM으로 관찰되었으며, XRD를 통해 막질을 평가하였다.
