Abstract
Low Dit interfacial GeOx, and GeOxNy are grown on Germanium using high density slot plane antenna (SPA) plasma oxidation and nitridation respectively. Excellent MOS characteristics are demonstrated for the Ge high-kappa gate stack with interfacial GeOx, and GeOxNy. GeOx interfacial layer significantly reduced interface state density (Dit) to as low as 3times1011 cm-2 eV-1.
