Abstract

The authors have fabricated low-temperature fully silicided YbSi2-x-gated n-MOSFETs that used an HfAlON gate dielectric with a 1.7-nm EOT. After a 600 °C rapid thermal annealing, these devices displayed an effective work function of 4.1 eV and a peak electron mobility of 180 cm2/V·;s. They have additional merit of a process compatible with current very large scale integration fabrication lines.
