Demonstration of scaled Ge p-channel FinFETs integrated on Si

We report the first demonstration of scaled Ge p-channel FinFET devices fabricated on a Si bulk FinFET baseline using the Aspect-Ratio-Trapping (ART) technique [1]. Excellent subthreshold characteristics (long-channel subthreshold swing SS=76mV/dec at 0.5V), good SCE control and high transconductance (1.2 mS/μm at 1V, 1.05 mS/μm at 0.5V) are achieved. The Ge FinFET presented in this work exhibits highest g
