First demonstration of heterogenous complementary FETs utilizing Low-Temperature (200 °c) Hetero-Layers Bonding Technique (LT-HBT)

For the first time, we demonstrate heterogeneous complementary FETs (hCFETs) with Ge and Si channels fabricated with a layer transfer technique. The 3D channel stacking integration particularly employs a low-temperature (200 °C) hetero-layers bonding technique (LT-HBT) realized by a surface activating chemical treatment at room temperature, enabling Ge channels bonded onto Si wafers. Furthermore, to obtain symmetric performance in n/p FETs, a multi-channel structure of two-channel Si and one-channel Ge is also implemented. Wafer-scale LT-HBT is demonstrated successfully, showing new opportunities for the ultimate device footprint scaling with heterogeneous integration. ? 2020 IEEE.
