Hole mobility in ultrathin body SOI pMOSFETs with SiGe or SiGeC channels

The hole mobilities of SiGe and SiGeC channel pMOSFETs fabricated on ultrathin silicon-on-insulator substrates are investigated and compared with reference Si channel devices. The total thickness of the fully depleted Si/SiGe(C)/Si body structure is /spl sim/ 25 nm. All devices demonstrated a near i...

Zusammenfassung:The hole mobilities of SiGe and SiGeC channel pMOSFETs fabricated on ultrathin silicon-on-insulator substrates are investigated and compared with reference Si channel devices. The total thickness of the fully depleted Si/SiGe(C)/Si body structure is /spl sim/ 25 nm. All devices demonstrated a near ideal subthreshold behavior, and the drive current and mobility were increased with more than 60% for SiGe and SiGeC channels. When comparing SIMOX and UNIBOND substrates, no significant difference could be detected.
