Germanium on silicon epitaxy and applications

High mobility materials are being considered to replace Si in the channel to achieve higher drive currents and switching speeds. Ge has particularly become of great interest as a channel material, owing to its high bulk hole and electron mobilities. However, replacement of Si channel by Ge requires...

description High mobility materials are being considered to replace Si in the channel to achieve higher drive currents and switching speeds. Ge has particularly become of great interest as a channel material, owing to its high bulk hole and electron mobilities. However, replacement of Si channel by Ge requires several critical issues to be addressed in Ge MOS technology. High quality gate dielectric for surface passivation, low parasitic source/drain resistance and performance improvement in Ge NMOS are among the major challenges in realizing Ge CMOS.
