Abstract

Recently, Si / SiGe n- MODFETs with transconductances exceeding 300 mS/mm at 300K and 600 mS/mm at 77K have been demonstrated by many groups. Accurate modeling of these short channel devices (L < 1μm) requires knowledge of hot electron drift velocities as a function of the electric field. This paper presents the first experimental determination of the high field drift velocity of 2DEG in Si/SiGe n-type modulation doped structures at 10K and 77K for fields varying from 0.1 V/cm to 3000 V/cm by magnetoresistance measurements.
