摘要
For the first time, we report high-kappa/metal-gate pMOSFETs fabricated on high-quality 200-mm germanium-on-insulator (GeOI) wafers obtained by the Ge enrichment technique. The highest mobility peak (200 cm(2)/V.s) and driving current (I-ON = 115 mu A/mu m at V-G - V-th = -0.8 V and V-DS = -1.2 V, for L = 0.5 mu m) have been demonstrated for GeOI HfO2/TiN pMOSFETs on Ge layers as thin as 50 nm. As compared to silicon-on-insulator control devices, 2 x enhancement of peak mobility has been achieved. Due to temperature variation experiments and technology computer-aided design simulations, we have investigated the key physical phenomena responsible for the measured OFF currents (band-to-hand tunneling at high V-DS and generation-recombination via the Shockley-Read-Hall process at low V-DS).
