Description
Summary:碩士 === 正修科技大學 === 電子工程研究所 === 94 === A working p-type SiGe metal-oxide-semiconductor field effect transistor (pMOSFETs), utilizing a double quantum wells as the buried conducting channel, has been successfully fabricated. The upper quantum well with 15%-Ge acts as a induced-carrier buffer to slow holes into the Si surface channel and increases the number of high-mobility holes in the 30%-Ge well at the bottom under high gate voltage by improving carrier confinement. Experimental results show that the devices with thinner Si-spacer layer between the two SiGe quantum wells exhibit excellent property of not only a higher effective hole mobility and wider gate voltage swings due to the better carrier confinement, which shows great potential for RF applications that require high speed, and high linearity.
