The first fabrication of Ge p-channel MOSFETs (p-MOSFETs) on Si substrates
is reported. A CMOS compatible process based on relaxed Ge layers grown on
Si(111) substrates by surfactant-mediated epitaxy (SME) was used. The non-o
ptimised low temperature process yielded normally-off Ge p-MOSFETs with rec
ord channel drift mobilities of 430 cm(2/)Vs.
