High-mobility channel materials are one of the recent performance boosters in the roadmap of semiconductor industry. Germanium(Ge) is among the materials that are nominated for future nanoelectronic devices beside silicon (Si).However, the chemical characteristics of Ge native oxide are a matter of concern in fabrication processes, especially at nanoscale. To produce Ge nanostructures of sub-20 nm size using electron beam lithography (EBL) with hydrogen silsesquioxane (HSQ) as a negative tone EBL resist, it is imperative to remove the Ge native oxide and passivate the Ge surface. In this poster we will present a fast and simple method to clean and passivate the Ge surface, which uses only non-hazardous household acids such as citric and acetic acids.The method improves the adhesion of HSQ to the substrate and allows to effectively avoid lifting off the HSQ nanostructures. With this method, sub-20 nm Ge nanowires can be fabricated, which will be used to develop a technology for doping Ge nanostructures by ion implantation and flash lamp annealing with outlook to possible nanoelectronics and photonics applications.
