Low temperature selective epitaxial growth of Si and SiGe has been obtained using an industrial single wafer chemical vapor deposition module operating at reduced pressure. Epitaxial Si and heteroepitaxial SiGe deposition with Ge content about 20 % has been studied as extrinsic base for self-aligned heterojunction bipolar transistors(HBTs), which helps to reduce the parasitic resistance to obtain higher maximum oscillation frequencies(f$\_$max/). The dependence of Si and SiGe deposition rates on exposed windows and their evolution with the addition of HCl to the gas mixture are investigated. SiH$_2$Cl$_2$ was used as the source of Si SEG(Selective Epitaxial Growth) and GeH$_4$ was added to grow SiGe SEG. The addition of HCl into the gas mixture allows increasing an incubation time even low growth temperature of 675∼725$^{circ}C$. In addition, the selectivity is enhanced for the SiGe alloy and it was proposed that the incubation time for the polycrystalline deposit on the oxide is increased probably due to GeO formation. On the other hand, when only SiGe SEG(Selective Epitaxial Growth) layer is used for extrinsic base, it shows a higher sheet resistance with Ti-silicide because of Ge segregation to the interface, but in case of Si or Si/SiGe SEG layer, the sheet resistance is decreased up to 70 %.
