摘要：
The ultrathin strained Si0.2Ge0.8 quantum well channel (similar to 5 nm) directly grown on Si substrates is demonstrated with low defect density and high hole mobility. The quantum well Si0.2Ge0.8 channel reveals an similar to 3.2 times hole current enhancement and an similar to 3 times hole mobility enhancement as compared with the bulk Si channel. The output current-voltage characteristics under the external mechanical strain confirm the compressive strain in the channel. The external compressive strain further enhances the hole mobility in a Si0.2Ge0.8 channel.
