Abstract

A method of forming a structure is provided. The method includes supporting a substrate within a reaction chamber of a semiconductor processing system, flowing a silicon precursor and a germanium precursor into the reaction chamber, and forming a silicon-germanium layer overlaying the substrate with the silicon containing precursor and the germanium precursor. Concentration of the germanium precursor within the reaction chamber is increased during the forming of the silicon-germanium layer overlaying the substrate. Methods of forming film stack structures, semiconductor device structures, and semiconductor processing systems are also described.
