Abstract

A thin (∼20nm) compressively-strained selective epitaxially grown Ge film was grown on small Si active areas by ultra-high vacuum-chemical vapour deposition. The Ge PMOSFETs with HfO2 gate dielectric show a ∼2X drive current enhancement and greater than 2X improvement in hole mobility compared to control Si PMOSFETs.
