Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We have fabricated Ge wires by liquid-phase epitaxy during rapid thermal annealing. The field effect transistors with the Ge wires exhibited high on/off current ratio under the accumulation mode. Moreover, effective hole mobility of 500 cm2/Vs was obtained, which was almost 1.6 times higher than the reference Si device. Direct band gap shrinkage was also investigated by means of photoluminescence spectroscopy. We observed a significant redshift of direct gap emission amounting to 45 meV for the Ge wire, which was mainly due to a tensile strain of approximately 0.4% induced by rapid crystallization from the Ge melting point.
