  • Abstract
    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 cm2/V.s) and driving current (ION= 115 muA/ mum at VG - Vth = -0.8 V and VDS = -1.2 V, for L = 0.5 mum) have been demonstrated for GeOI HfO2/TiN pMOSFETs on Ge layers as thin as 50 nm. As compared to silicon-on-insulator control devices, 2times 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-band tunneling at high VDS and generation-recombination via the Shockley-Read-Hall process at low VDS).
