Self-consistent energy balance simulations of hole dynamics in SiGe/Si THz quantum cascade structures [PDF]
Analysis of hole transport in cascaded p-Si/SiGe quantum well structures is performed using self-consistent rate equations simulations. The hole subband structure is calculated using the 6×6 k·p model, and then used to find carrier relaxation rates due ...

Hole spin relaxation in [001] strained asymmetric Si/SiGe and Ge/SiGe quantum wells
Hole spin relaxation in [001] strained asymmetric Si/Si$_{0.7}$Ge$_{0.3}$ (Ge/Si$_{0.3}$Ge$_{0.7}$) quantum wells is investigated in the situation with only the lowest hole subband being relevant.

Characteristics of SiGe Thin Film Resistors in SiGe ICs [PDF]
SiGe integrated circuits are being used in the field of high-speed wire/wireless communications and microwave systems due to the RF/high-speed analog characteristics and the easiness in the fabrication. Reducing the resistance variation in SiGe thin film resistors results in enhancing the reliability of integrated circuits.

Sputtered Gold as an Effective Schottky Gate for Strained Si/SiGe Nanostructures
Metallization of Schottky surface gates by sputtering Au on strained Si/SiGe heterojunctions enables the depletion of the two dimensional electron gas (2DEG) at a relatively small voltage while maintaining an extremely low level of leakage current.

Decoherence of electron spin qubits in Si-based quantum computers
Direct phonon spin-lattice relaxation of an electron qubit bound by a donor impurity or quantum dot in SiGe heterostructures is investigated. The aim is to evaluate the importance of decoherence from this mechanism in several important solid-state ...

Acoustoelectric effects in very high-mobility p-SiGe/Ge/SiGe heterostructure [PDF]
Measurement results of the acoustoelectric effects [surface acoustic waves (SAW) attenuation and velocity] in a high-mobility p-SiGe/Ge/SiGe structure are presented. The structure was low-energy plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition grown with a two-dimensional (2D) channel buried in the strained Ge layer.

Electron transport through antidot superlattices in $Si/SiGe$ heterostructures: new magnetoresistance resonances in lattices with large diameter antidots [PDF]
In the present work we have investigated the transport properties in a number of Si/SiGe samples with square antidot lattices of different periods. In samples with lattice periods equal to 700 nm and 850 nm we have observed the conventional low-field ...
