It has recently been demonstrated an excellent Ge-MOSFET operation with an EOT of 0.76 nm using HfO$$_{2}$$/Al$$_{2}$$O$$_{3}$$/GeO$$_{x}$$/Ge gate stack. However, the role of Al$$_{2}$$O$$_{3}$$ layer in high-$$k$$/Ge stack is not well understood. In this work, we systematically investigated an effect of AlO$$_{x}$$ interlayer on thermal stability and EOT scaling focusing on the Ge diffusion into an overlying HfO$$_{2}$$ layer by means of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and electrical characterization. It was found that ultrathin AlO$$_{x}$$ interlayer effectively suppresses the metal germanate formation in the high-$$k$$/Ge stack, thus obtaining good electrical properties. An EOT of 0.56 nm with significantly reduced gate leakage was successfully obtained for Pt/HfO$$_{2}$$/AlO$$_{x}$$/GeO$$_{x}$$/Ge gate stack.
