Ideal substrate for growth of Germanium thin films
Dear Dr. Mariot Panjikaran,
a silicon platform or a glass substrate, suitably prepared, should be fine.
Best regards, Pierluigi Traverso.
for growing Germanium thin films using thermal evaporation you can use silicon, glass (quartz) and/or mica substrates.
Best regards,
Igor Novak
Dear Mariot Panjikaran ,
You can follow the article linked here:
Article Preparation and Properties of Vacuum-deposited Germanium Thin Films
Most of inorganic substrate are suitable.
good luck

Favourable conditions of base pressure, rate of deposition. Also, by which characterisation technique to be used to verify the thickness of the deposited film.
