Outline of Final Research Achievements

By annealing Ge substrate in H2, we have achieved atomically flat Ge surface. As a result, the electron mobility at high electron density has been significantly improved. On the other hand, concerning the Ge isotope effects, we have unfortunately not succeeded in homo-epitaxial growth of 74Ge on Ge substrate. However, we found rather important results that oxygen-related defects in Ge affected the electron peak mobility and they could be annihilated by H2 annealing. Both new findings surely explore Ge CMOS future.
