Abstract
Methods and systems for selectively depositing a p-type doped silicon germanium layer and structures and devices including a p-type doped silicon germanium layer are disclosed. An exemplary method includes providing a substrate, comprising a surface comprising a first area comprising a first material and a second area comprising a second material, within a reaction chamber; depositing a p-type doped silicon germanium layer overlying the surface, the p-type doped silicon germanium layer comprising gallium; and depositing a cap layer overlying the p-type doped silicon germanium layer. The method can further include an etch step to remove the cap layer and the p-type doped silicon germanium layer overlying the second material.
