摘要

Severe Fermi level pinning at the interface of metal-Ge leads to the formation of a Schottky barrier. Therefore, a high contact resistance is introduced, debasing the performance of Ge devices. In this study, a Ge surface was treated by nitrogen plasma to form an ultra-thin Germanium oxynitride (GeO_xN_y) passivation layer. It was found that the Schottky barrier height (SBH) of metal-Ge contact was strongly modulated by the GeO_xN_y interlayer, indicating alleviation of Fermi-level pinning effect. By adjusting the principal parameters of N_2 plasma treatment and additional post anneal, a Quasi-ohmic Al-Ge contact was achieved. Furthermore, the introduced GeO_xN_y layer gave extremely lower leakage current density of the gate stack for HfO_2/Ge devices. These results demonstrate that GeO_xN_y formed by N_2 plasma would be greatly beneficial to the fabrication of the Ge-based devices.
