The oxidation of SiGe film epitaxial grown on top of SOI wafers has been studied. These SiGe/SOI samples were oxidized at 700, 900, 1100°C. Germanium atoms were rejected from SiGe film to SOI layer. A new Si 1−x Ge x (x is minimal) layer formed at SiGe/Si interface. As the germanium atoms diffused, the new Si 1−x Ge x (x is minimal) layer moved to Si/SiO 2 interface. Propagation of threading dislocation in SiGe film to SOI substrate was hindered by the new SiGe/Si interface. Strain in SOI substrate transferred from SiGe film was released through dislocation nucleation and propagation inner. The relaxation of SiGe film could be described as: strain relaxed through strain equalization and transfer process between SiGe film and SOI substrates. Raman spectroscopy was used to characterize the strain of SiGe film. Microstructure of SiGe/SOI was observed by transmission electron microscope (TEM).
