Metallization of Schottky surface gates by sputtering Au on strained Si/SiGeheterojunctions enables the depletion of the two dimensional electron gas(2DEG) at a relatively small voltage while maintaining an extremely low levelof leakage current. A fabrication process has been developed to enable theformation of sub-micron Au electrodes sputtered onto Si/SiGe without the needof a wetting layer.Comment: 3 pages, 3 figure
