4、flat-band voltages concentrated -0.42V at twenty percents nitrogen flow ratio. With increasing nitrogen gas flow ratio, the thermal stability decreased by tantalum diffusion into dielectric layer. If nitrogen gas flow ratio is higher than thirteen percents, the tantalum diffusion phenomenon is obvio
5、usly. Ge-on-Insulator substrates Formation The GOI surface roughness is reduced by thermal rapid annealing with hydrogen gas in furnace. The bonding condition of low temperature heat treatment is at 150 with 10% oxygen flow in furnace.,Summary,GOI MOS Photodetector The leakage current is decreased at inversion bias by platinum gate electrode. The novel GOI PMOS photodetectors have high responsivity (0.3 A/W) and high quantum efficiency of 40% at 850nm (0.25mW). The 60% enhancement is achieved with -3 dB bandwidth, comparing to bulk Ge MOS detector.,
