  • Abstract
    A 5 nm-thick SiO2 gate was grown on an Si (p+)/Si0.8Ge0.2 modulation-doped heterostructure at 26 degrees C with an oxygen plasma generated by a multipolar electron cyclotron resonance source. The ultrathin oxide has breakdown field >12 MV/cm and fixed charge density approximately 3*1016 cm-2. Leakage current as low as 1 mu A was obtained with the gate biased at 4 V. The MISFET with 0.25*25 mu m2 gate shows maximum drain current of 41.6 mA/mm and peak transconductance of 21 mS/mm.
