摘要
We report the first ferroelectric (FE) HfZrOx (HZO) Ge and GeSn pMOSFETs with sub-60 mV/decade subthreshold swing (SS) (40 similar to 43 mV/decade), negligible hysteresis, and enhanced I-DS. With a RTA at 450 degrees C, FE devices with reduced hysteresis of 40 similar to 60 mV demonstrate the significantly improved SS and I-DS characteristics compared to control devices without FE, owing to the negative capacitance (NC) effect induced by HZO. FE Ge and GeSn pFETs achieve 22% and 20% I-DS enhancement than control devices, respectively, at the drive voltage of 1.0 V. NC effect in FE devices is proved by the gate leakage and inversion capacitance characteristics.
