Abstract

We study Si1–xGex/HfO2/Si MOS devices focusing on the simulation of the total gate capacitance. We found that the threshold voltage slightly increases with the amount of Ge and that it is possible to decrease the gate depletion effect by controlling the content of Ge.The most remarkable result is that the combination of HfO2 as dielectric film and polycrystalline gates leads to gate inversion effect for small thicknesses of the dielectric film.
