摘要: Field-effect transistors with metal gate and HfO"2 dielectric on silicon-passivated germanium substrate are studied. Capacitance-Voltage characteristics show lower capacitance at negative voltages, irrespective of the device channel polarity. Possible mechanisms for this asymmetry discussed. Reliability metal/high-k stack sub-micron p-channel is evaluated. Time-dependent breakdown analysis indicates comparable gate-stack quality silicon substrates.
