Abstract
In this research, based on I–V and C–V measurement at different temperatures, the interface defect density in the device with the Si/SiGe channel was discussed. In addition, negative bias temperature instability (NBTI) is also studied. In previous research, most of the flat-band voltage (V
FB) shifts during NBTI stress was attributed to hole injection. In this article, however, the release of atomic hydrogen from the Si–H bonds at the SiO2/Si interface and at the SiGe interface produces a fixed oxide charge, which causes V
FB shifts which vary with material.
