摘要
We analysed heavily doped p+/n junctions in germanium, and found that the halos in this work provide a trade-off between transistor channel control and junction leakage. Temperature-dependent leakage measurements show that either trap-assisted tunneling (TAT) or band-to-band-tunneling (BTBT) are the dominant leakage mechanisms for junctions with halos, (junction doping above similar to 10(18) cm(-3)). Further, perimeter leakage data at/near room temperature for these junctions are consistent with the Hurckx model for TAT. At lower doping levels (no Halo), leakages are significantly lower and correspond to a ShockleyRead-Hall (SRH) mechanism at/near room temperature and a standard diffusion current mechanism for temperatures above similar to 75 degrees C.
