摘要

We demonstrate thin body GeOI Pseudo-MOSFETs fabricated by a novel GeOI fabrication process based on epitaxial Ge films grown on III-V compound semiconductor wafers and wafer bonding. Ge surfaces before bonding are treated by plasma post oxidation to form GeOx, which can provide better interfacial quality between Ge and buried oxides. Normal operations of n- and p-MOSFETs are confirmed for GeOI with average thickness of 60 to 20 nm. The peak effective hole and electron mobility of 122 and 235 cm(2)/Vs, respectively, have been obtained for 20-nm-thick-GeOI n- and p-MOSFETs. The GeOI thickness dependence of mobility is also examined. (C) The Author(s) 2014. Published by ECS.
