The energy difference is only 134 meV between direct and indirect band gaps, implying the possibility of a direct band gap light emission. In general, a p-i-n diode structure is used for a Ge photo emitter, of which fabrication process is relatively complicated and high-quality n-type doping is still an issue. Recently we achieved high Schottky barrier heights for electrons ΦBN = 0.60 eV (HfGe/n-Ge) and holes ΦBP = 0.57 eV (TiN/p-Ge) [1,2]. Based on this technology, we demonstrate direct band gap room temperature electroluminescence (EL) from bulk Ge using a fin-type asymmetric metel/Ge/metal (HfGe/Ge/TiN) structure.","PeriodicalId":371483,"journal":{"name":"2014 7th International Silicon-Germanium Technology and Device Meeting (ISTDM)","volume":"18 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-08-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132729316","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}

The vision of this concept is to shift the critical thickness for plastic relaxation by defect injection of a growing heteroepitaxial thin film structure on a substrate to infinity. In other words, in case of the Ge/Si heterosystem, defect free Ge heterostructures on Si(001) without threading arm defects in the volume of the Ge film and without misfit dislocations at the Ge/Si heterostructure interface would result. To achieve this goal, the compliance approach is based on a subtle strain partitioning between Ge film and Si substrate so that the increasing mismatch strain is not only absorbed in the epitaxial Ge film but also in part into the Si substrate. As Hirth and Lothe proposed the use of nanometer thick and thus unrealistically thin Si substrates, it was our goal to establish compliant growth for the Ge/Si heterosystem under Si CMOS compatible conditions.","PeriodicalId":371483,"journal":{"name":"2014 7th International Silicon-Germanium Technology and Device Meeting (ISTDM)","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115996028","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}

There can be several CMOS structures using III-V/Ge channels, as schematically shown in Fig. 1. Viable CMOS structures using III-V and/or Ge channels are still strongly dependent on coming progress in the device/process/integration technologies of III-V/Ge MOS devices. Here, one of the most important issues for applying to the future technology nodes is suppression of short channel effects, which can be realized by ultrathin body (UTB) channels. Particularly, we would prefer planar UTB/UTBOX-based structures, which can realize further improvement of SCEs by combination with multi-gate structures such as FinFET and Tri-gate/nanowire MOSFETs, as shown in Fig. 2. This scheme allows us to provide static and/or dynamic Vth control through UTBOX by Si substrate doping and back bias under simple structures and fabrication processes. As for Ge-based CMOS, easy integration of GOI/SGOI is possible under the present SOI/sSOI platform. Here, the difficult challenges for realizing high performance logic devices include the III-V/Ge ultrathin body channel formation, the low resistivity S/D formation, the mobility enhancement in such ultrathin body channels and superior MOS gate stacks. Our approach for the channel formation is the wafer bonding and the Ge condensation. Also, metal S/D technologies are regarded as promising for reducing parasitic S/D resistance. In order to maintain high channel mobility, we employ optimized channel design of quantum wells (QW) with MOS interface buffers for III-V channels, and surface orientation and strain engineering for Ge channels. The GeOx-based gate stacks are important for obtaining high mobility Ge MOSFETs with ultrathin EOT.","PeriodicalId":371483,"journal":{"name":"2014 7th International Silicon-Germanium Technology and Device Meeting (ISTDM)","volume":"64 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2014-06-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127621276","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}
