Abstract
We have presented an atomistic approach for treating SiGe pMOSFET devices. A novel tight-binding bandstructure parametrization has been developed and validated for bulk SiGe. It has then been applied to ballistic simulation of quantum confined SiGe nanowire pMOS and compared to experimental result.
