  • Abstract
    This paper will first discuss intrinsic advantages of high-pressure oxidation of Ge and then present further improvement of electron mobility in Ge n-MISFET using high-k gate stacks combined with high-pressure oxidation. The peak mobility is about 1500 cm2/Vsec, which is the highest one to date among unstrained Si and Ge MISFETs. Ge-CMOS is a strong candidate for beyond Si-CMOS.
