Abstract: Gradual Ge1-xSix/Si hetero-nanocrystals on ultrathin SiO2 layers were fabricated by combining self-assembled growth and the selective chemical etching method.Charge storage characteristics of nonvolatile floating-gate memory based on gradual Ge1-xSix/Si hetero-nanocrystals have been fabricated and investigated through capacitance-voltage (C-V) and capacitance-time (C-t) measurements.The findings indicate that holes reach a longer retention time in gradual Ge1-xSix/Si hetero-nanocrystals,which can be attributed to the holes trapped solidly on the side of the higher valence band of the compound potential barrier caused by the offset between Ge and Si.
