The ZrTiO<sub>4</sub>/Yb<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> gate stack demonstrates Dit of 2.4 × 10<sup>11</sup> cm<sup>-2</sup>· eV<sup>-1</sup> and EOT down to 0.76 nm which are, respectively, due to the formation of an interfacial YbGeO<sub>x</sub> layer that well passivates the dangling bonds at Ge surface and the adoption of a crystalline ZrTiO<sub>4</sub> film with a κ value of 45.6. The gate stack also shows low leakage current, tight distribution of device parameters, and desirable reliability performance, paving an alternative avenue to develop high-performance Ge MOS devices.</div></div> </li> <li class='list-group-item border-0 py-3 px-0'> <div class='row g-0 align-items-center mb-2'><div class='col-12 col-md-3 fullRecLabelEnglish fw-bold mb-2 mb-md-0'><span class='text-muted small'>Keywords</span></div><div class='col-12 col-md-9 leftDirection leftAlign'>MOSFET; leakage currents; passivation; semiconductor device reliability; titanium compounds; ytterbium compounds; zirconium compounds; MOS devices; Yb<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub>; YbGeO; ZrTiO<sub>4</sub>; crystalline film; dangling bonds; gate stack; leakage current; metal-oxide-semiconductor devices; passivation layer; reliability performance; Annealing; Dielectrics; Films; Leakage currents; Logic gates; MOS devices; Passivation; Crystalline ZrTiO<formula formulatype=$ $_4$; EOT; Ge passivation; Yb$_2$O$_3$ ; high-k; interface trap density; leakage current; reliability;
