The shallowest junction depths formed for the n+/p and p+/n junctions were 9.5 nm and 10.7 nm with sheet resistances of 620 ohms/sq. and 414 ohms/sq., respectively. Additionally, by reducing knocked-on oxygen during ion implantation, the sheet resistance was decreased by 5 to 15%. The lowest sheet resistance was 235 ohms/sq. with a junction depth of 21.5 nm in the n+/p Ge. These results indicate that the potential for forming ultra-shallow n+/p and p+/n junctions in the nanometer range in Ge devices using FLA is very high, leading to realistic monolithically-integrated Ge CMOS devices.","PeriodicalId":117665,"journal":{"name":"2016 16th International Workshop on Junction Technology (IWJT)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122901902","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To seek for contact solutions, this paper compares metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) contacts and metal-semiconductor (MS) direct contacts in terms of contact resistivity and CMOS compatibility. On p-type substrates, due to the favorable surface Fermi level pinning, MS contact has absolute advantage over MIS. On n-type substrates, on the one hand, we find MIS contacts have relatively high contact resistivity despite the low Schottky barrier height; the low thermal stability of MIS is also worrying. On the other hand, with MS contacts, we use a pre-amorphization based Ti silicidation technique and achieve contact resistivity of 1.5×10-9 Ω·cm2. Therefore, for both NMOS and PMOS, we confirm that MS contacts are still the prevailing contact scheme. Advanced MS interface engineering is able to help reach the target contact resistivity required by advanced CMOS technology.","PeriodicalId":117665,"journal":{"name":"2016 16th International Workshop on Junction Technology (IWJT)","volume":"24 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-05-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121149037","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
