Antimonide-based nanowire devices — •Lars-Erik Wernersson — Lund University, Sweden

III/V nanowires are attractive for implementation in various transistor configurations. For instance, InAs nanowire FETs have shown high transconductance and good subthreshold characteristics at 50 nm Lg [1]. Capacitance studies of the III/V MOS structure confirmed the transistor operation and provided values for the interface state density [2]. Also heterostruture barriers have been introduced to the channel to shift Vt [3].

The introduction of Antimon-based materials into the channel enables new functionalities for the nanowire transistors. GaSb nanowires have demonstrated good p-type conduction [4], while InSb nanowires allow the introduction of a very high mobility material [5]. Besides, InSb has a very large g-factor.

In this talk, the performance for short-channel InAs nanowire transistors and MOS capacitors will be discussed. Furthermore, experimental data for growth and electrical performance of GaSb and InSb nanowires will be presented and discussed.
