High Performance, Strained-Ge, Heterostructure p-MOSFETs

  • Conference paper
Simulation of Semiconductor Processes and Devices 2007

Abstract

The optimal device structures and channel orientation for nanoscale strained-Ge heterostructure p-MOSFETs, are discussed through detailed Band-to-band-tunneling (including band structure and quantum effects), Low-field Mobility (k.p and Boltzmann Transport), Full-Band Monte-Carlo, and 1-D Poisson -Schrödinger Simulations. The tradeoffs between drive current (ION), intrinsic delay (τ), band-to-band-tunneling (BTBT) leakage and short channel effects (SCE) have been systematically compared in high mobility strained-Ge Heterostructure FETs (H-FETs).
