Problems solved by technology

However, the main factor restricting the large-scale application of germanium in integrated circuits is the lack of stable germanium oxide with a high-quality interface with germanium. The usual surface germanium oxide (GeO 2 and GeO) are either water-soluble or volatile, have very poor interface quality, and produce severe Fermi pinning effects, which greatly hinder the fabrication of Ge-based transistors, introducing high-k materials into Ge, for The development of Ge transistors provides a new opportunity
