Abstract: The increase of surface to volume ratio results in the enhancement of the sensitivity of the nanowires. Our previous studies have shown that the higher Ge fraction of Si1-xGex nano-wire improves the sensitivity of the nanowire biosensor as a result of carrier mobility enhancement in strain-Si. Increasing the fraction of Ge in SiGe-on-Insulator (SGOI) using Ge condensation by oxidation has obtained a significant enhancement in hole mobility, further improving the sensitivity of SGOI nanowire. However, the sensitivity of SGOI nanowire was degraded for exceeding a Ge fraction of 20% (i.e., high Ge fraction), resulting from the unstable surface state. In this work, a top surface passivation SiO2 layer was deposited on Si0.8Ge0.2 nanowire and the sensitivity was about 1.3 times greater than nanowire sample without the top passivation layer.
