Abstract

A method of forming a silicon germanium layer on a surface of a substrate and a system for forming a silicon germanium layer are disclosed. Examples of the disclosure provide a method that includes providing a plurality of growth precursors to control and/or promote parasitic gas-phase and surface reactions, such that greater control of the film (e.g., thickness and/or composition) uniformity can be realized.
