Abstract
The new Junction Field Effect Transistors (JFETs) with Silicon-germanium (SiGe) layers is investigated. This structure uses SiGe layer to prevent out diffusion of boron in the channel region. In this paper, we report electrical properties of SiGe JFET measured under various design parameters influencing the performance of the device. Simulation results show that out diffusion of boron is reduced by the insertion SiGe layers. Because the SiGe layer acts as a barrier to prevent the spread of boron. This proposed JFET, regardless of changes in fabrication processes, accurate and stable cutoff voltage can be controlled. It is easy to maintain certain electrical characteristics to improve the yield of JFET devices.
