Abstract

See full text

A method of producing a semiconductor laminate film includes forming a semiconductor layer containing silicon and germanium on a silicon substrate by a sputtering method. In the sputtering method, a film formation temperature of the semiconductor layer is less than 500° C., and a film formation pressure of the semiconductor layer ranges from 1 mTorr to 11 mTorr, or, a film formation temperature of the semiconductor layer is less than 600° C., and a film formation pressure of the semiconductor layer is equal to or more than 2 mTorr and less than 5 mTorr. The sputtering method uses a sputtering gas having a volume ratio of a hydrogen gas of less than 0.1%, and the semiconductor layer satisfies a relationship of t≤0.881×x−4.79, where t represents a thickness (nm) of the semiconductor layer, and x represents a ratio of the number of germanium atoms to a sum of the number of silicon atoms and the number of germanium atoms in the semiconductor layer.
