Abstract :
It is shown that Ge-doping of silicon may be implemented in the technology of the SHF IC manufacture. Epitaxial layers doped with germanium allow for the leakage current to be decreased and for the breakdown voltage of p-n-junctions and MOS structures produced by the MOSFET process to be increased.
