This paper proposes and develops a new technique based on low temperature conductance method to quantitatively evaluate the trap densities around NiGe/Ge Schottky junction interface and their time constants. It is found that the Schottky barrier height (SBH) in the NiGe/Ge junction is related with these junction traps. Additionally, the traps around junction interface could strongly affect the electrical properties of Ge MOSFETs, especially the OFF-state currents.
