Popis: | We report for the first time on deep sub-micron Ge pFETs with physical gate lengths down to 0.151 /spl mu/m. The devices are made using a silicon-like process flow, with a directly etched gate stack consisting of TaN gate on an ALD or MOCVD HfO/sub 2/ dielectric. Promising drive currents are found. Various issues such as the severe short channel effects (SCE), the increased diode leakage compared to Si and the high amount of interface states (N/sub it/) are addressed. The need for an alternative Ge substrate pre-treatment and subsequent high-k gate dielectric deposition to push EOT values below 1 nm is illustrated. |
