Abstract
We report on a 65 nm Ge pFET with a record performance of Ion = 478muA/mum and Ioff,s= 37nA/mum @Vdd= -1V. These improvements are quantified and understood with respect to halo/extension implants, minimizing series resistance and gate stack engineering. A better control of Ge in-diffusion using a low-temperature epi-silicon passivation process allows achieving 1nm EOT Ge-pFET with increased performance.
