Abstract :
In this paper, we report InGaAs channel MOSFETs with an InP source contact. InP source contact enables the suppression of carrier starvation and the easy shrinkage of the channel length by anisotropic etching. In fabricated 50-nm InGaAs channel MOSFETs, ID = 2.4A/mm at VD=0.5V were observed. On the other hand, degradations of Vth and SS by the short channel effect were also observed. Thinner channels will be required in order to suppress this effect.
