    Abstract

    Continuously down-scaling EOT and improving mobility are required for CMOS device. Small 0.6∼1 nm EOT and low Vt of ∼0.15 V are achieved in CMOS by using higher κ gate dielectric and novel process. The ultimate EOT scaling is limited by the inserted ultra-thin SiON interfacial layer in high-κ/Si to reduce the mobility degradation. Further mobility improvement is obtained by using Ge channel MOSFET that has 2.5X better high-field hole effective mobility than the SiO2/Si universal mobility at an E eff of 1 MV/cm.
