  • Abstract
    Ge is a attractive material for alternative channel materials due to its high electron and hole mobility. Ge substrate is also a potential materials for supply scaling down to meet ITRS requirements. This work reports the Ge pMOSFET device fabrication and pMOSFET characteristics. The Ge substrate used in this work are (100) Sb doped n-type wafers with a resistivity of 1.04∼0.08 ohm*cm. Ge pMOSFET´s electrical performance like I-V curves, transfer curves and hole mobility are improved by surface nitridation and passivation of HfO2 gate dielectrics.
