Deformation Induced Holes in Ge-Rich SiGe-on-Insulator and Ge-on-Insulator Substrates Fabricated by Ge Condensation Process

Abstract: Electrical properties of Ge-rich SiGe-on-insulator (SGOI) and Ge-on-insulator (GOI) structures fabricated by Ge condensation process have been studied. The SGOI and GOI structures for Ge composition, xGe, larger than 0.4 exhibit p-type conduction. The hole density is found to rapidly increase from 1016 to 1018 cm-3 with an increase in xGe during the Ge condensation and to decrease down to low-1017 cm-3 when xGe reaches unity. Analyses of scanning spreading resistance microscopy have directly revealed that the … Show more

“…In addition, the effective mobility versus effective electric field (E eff ) shows opposite behavior for the two substrate orientations [36]. The remarkable (and favorable) increase of m eff with E eff for Ge (110) points to a different dominant scattering mechanism, with less surface roughness scattering and different phonon scattering.…”

“…On (111) substrates no benefit is expected for m h [33], unless compressive strain is applied [32]. On the other hand, a clear mobility improvement of unstrained Ge (110) pMOSFETs with respect to Si (110) has been demonstrated [28,31,[34][35][36], yielding values in the range of 230-300 cm 2 /Vs for m h (Table 1). This is an enhancement factor of 3 and 1.5 against the (100) Si universal hole mobility and the (110) SOI effective hole mobility, respectively [35].…”
