Abstract
We have investigated the morphology and electrical properties of NiSiGe/SiGe contact by C+ ions pre-implanted into relaxed Si0.8Ge0.2 layers. Cross-section transmission electron microscopy revealed that both the surface and interface of NiSiGe were improved by C+ ions implantation. In addition, the effective hole Schottky barrier heights (ΦBp) of NiSiGe/SiGe were extracted. ΦBp was observed to decrease substantially with an increase in C+ ion implantation dose.
