- ItemShallow and Undoped Germanium Quantum Wells: A Playground for Spin and Hybrid Quantum Technology(Weinheim : Wiley-VCH, 2019) Sammak, Amir; Sabbagh, Diego; Hendrickx, Nico W.; Lodari, Mario; Wuetz, Brian Paquelet; Tosato, Alberto; Yeoh, LaReine; Bollani, Monica; Virgilio, Michele; Schubert, Markus Andreas; Zaumseil, Peter; Capellini, Giovanni; Veldhorst, Menno; Scappucci, GiordanoBuried-channel semiconductor heterostructures are an archetype material platform for the fabrication of gated semiconductor quantum devices. Sharp confinement potential is obtained by positioning the channel near the surface; however, nearby surface states degrade the electrical properties of the starting material. Here, a 2D hole gas of high mobility (5 × 10 5 cm 2 V −1 s −1 ) is demonstrated in a very shallow strained germanium (Ge) channel, which is located only 22 nm below the surface. The top-gate of a dopant-less field effect transistor controls the channel carrier density confined in an undoped Ge/SiGe heterostructure with reduced background contamination, sharp interfaces, and high uniformity. The high mobility leads to mean free paths ≈ 6 µm, setting new benchmarks for holes in shallow field effect transistors. The high mobility, along with a percolation density of 1.2 × 10 11 cm −2 , light effective mass (0.09m e ), and high effective g-factor (up to 9.2) highlight the potential of undoped Ge/SiGe as a low-disorder material platform for hybrid quantum technologies. © 2019 The Authors.
