  • Abstract
    Ge diffusion into high-k layer is completely suppressed by taking advantage of thermally stable Zr-silicate/Ge structure. This leads to high muh of 210 cm 2/Vsec at 0.1M V/cm, which is two times higher than that of ZrO2/Ge and even 23% higher than the value for Si universal curve. EOT scalability of Zr-silicate/Ge gate stacks is comparable to that of ZrO2/Ge one
