Popis: A novel subsurface SiGe-channel p-MOSFET is demonstrated in which modulation doping is used to control the threshold voltage without degrading the channel mobility. A novel device design consisting of a graded SiGe channel, an n/sup +/ polysilicon gate, and p/sup +/ modulation doping is used. A boron-doped layer is located underneath the graded and undoped SiGe channel to minimize process sensitivity and maximize transconductance. Low-field hole mobilities of 220 cm/sup 2//V-s at 300 K and 980 cm/sup 2//V-s at 82 K were achieved in functional submicrometer p-MOSFETs. >
