It is found that Sn incorporation into germanium oxide is effective in suppressing the formation of volatile GeO. For SnGeO<i>x</i> films formed by oxidation of SnGe<i>x</i>/Ge structures, due to fewer dislocations between SnGe<i>x</i> and Ge, it enjoys an interface trap density of 2.1 × 10<sup>11</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup> · eV<sup>-1</sup>, which is lower than those oxidized from Sn/Ge structures. Furthermore, the films also demonstrate desirable electrical characteristics in terms of tiny frequency dispersion and small hysteresis in capacitance measurement, a low leakage current of 9.3 × 10<sup>-10</sup> A/cm<sup>2</sup> at a gate voltage of - 1 V with an effective oxide thickness of 3.6 nm, and a good bias temperature instability of 15-mV flatband voltage shift at 85°C after 12.5 MV/cm stress for 1000 s.</div> </div> <div class='row'> <div class='leftDiv labelDiv col-xs-4 col-sm-2 fullRecLabelEnglish'>Keywords : </div><div class='valueDiv leftDirection leftAlign col-xs-8 col-sm-10 fullRecValueEnglish'>X-ray spectroscopy; germanium compounds; interface states; oxidation; passivation; photoelectron spectroscopy; tin compounds; SnGeO; X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy; interface trap density; size 3.6 nm; surface passivation; temperature 85 degC; thermal oxidation; time 1000 s; voltage -1 V; voltage 15 mV; Dielectrics; Frequency measurement; Logic gates; Oxidation; Passivation; Temperature measurement; Tin; <formula formulatype=$ $ hbox{SnGeO}_{x}$; Bias temperature instability (BTI); Ge surface passivation; interface trap density; leakage current;
