The growth process of germanium nanocrystals in a SiOx matrix was studied by an x-ray diffraction (XRD) technique using the grazing incidence of x rays. The conclusion based on the XRD analysis of the Ge-doped glass is in good agreement with that from Raman spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. There are two stages of crystallization: the first stage is nucleation of the Ge nanocrystals at 600 °C, and the second stage is growth of the nanocrystals at 800 °C. During the second stage, the decomposition of GeOx into Ge and O in the Ge-doped glass sample results in fast growth of Ge nanocrystals. This is the first report that studied the growth of Ge nanocrystals in an SiOx matrix by XRD.
