Abstract

A review is presented of Si/Si1−xGex heterostructures which may be used for electronic transistors along with more exotic designs of electrical devices including quantum effect devices. Important issues including integration of the devices with present technology along with defect problems will be presented. The final section will explore exotic quantum devices and review the potential for different SiGe devices to reach the market place.
