Ultra low contact resistivity ( −8 Ω-cm 2 ) to In 0.53 Ga 0.47 As fin sidewall (110)/(100) surfaces: Realized with a VLSI processed III–V fin TLM structure fabricated with III–V on Si substrates
2014
We report a record low contact resistivity of sub-1.0×10 −8 Ω.cm 2 realized on n + In 0.53 Ga 0.47 As fin sidewall surfaces. This is achieved with VLSI processed fin TLM structures on wafer scale III–V on Si substrates. A novel low-damage III–V fin etch was developed and fins down to 35 nm were fabricated. A surface treatment to smoothen the fin sidewall surfaces was proposed, which reduced sidewall surface roughness variation by 90%. Additionally, we show for the first time that implant temperature could be used to eliminate implant damage in III–V fins. This increased activation efficiency (+3.6×) and reduced sheet resistance (−60%).
