Abstract
The quasi-ballistic transport characteristics in the Ge pMOSFETs with NiGe metal source/drain (S/D) are analyzed. It is found that the Ge pMOSFETs represent a remarkable velocity overshoot and the injection velocity of the hole achieves $1.8\times \,\, 10^{{7}}$ cm/s. Additionally, the Ge pMOSFETs with metal S/D exhibit a much smaller 1/Bsat than those in Ge-OI pMOSFETs with conventional ion implantation S/D. These phenomena are attributable to the improved lateral electrical field at the metal S/D edge. It is suggested that the metal S/D structure is an effective booster to increase the electrical performance of ballistic transport Ge pMOSFETs.
分析了金属源极/漏极(S/D)锗pmosfet的准弹道输运特性。结果表明,Ge pmosfet表现出显著的速度超调,空穴注入速度达到$1.8\倍\,\,10^{{7}}$ cm/s。此外,与传统离子注入S/D的Ge- oi pmosfet相比,采用金属S/D的Ge- oi pmosfet表现出更小的1/Bsat。这些现象可归因于金属S/D边侧电场的改善。结果表明,金属S/D结构是提高弹道输运Ge pmosfet电性能的有效助推器。
