Low energy plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (LEPECVD) has been applied to the synthesis of Si-modulation doped field effect transistor structures, comprising a SiGe relaxed buffer layer and a modulation doped strained Si channel. A growth rate of at least 5 nm/s for the relaxed SiGe buffer layer is well above that obtainable by any other technique. Due to the low ion energies involved in LEPECVD, ion damage is absent, despite a huge plasma density. The structural quality of the LEPECVD grown SiGe buffer layers is comparable to that of state-of-the-art material. The electronic properties of the material were evaluated by growing modulation doped Si quantum wells on the buffer layers. We obtain a low temperature (2 K) Hall mobility of mu(H)=2.5x10(4) cm(2)/Vs for the electrons in the Si channel at an electron sheet density of n(s)=8.6x10(11) cm(-2).
