- Interface states at the gate oxide/channel of metal oxide semiconductor (MOS) transistors generally result in detrimental effects on the device performance which need to be considered for the new generations of high-k dielectrics. In this paper, the admittance of Gadolinium silicate (GdSiO) and Lanthanum Lutetium oxide (LaLuO3) MOS capacitors were investigated as a function of the signal frequency, temperature and gate voltage. The Arrhenius plots of the peak pulsations extracted from the conductance spectra have been discussed on the bases of simulated data taking into account a distribution of the trap energy levels and a thermally enhanced capture cross-section. The consequences of a peaked interface state distribution on the evolution of activation energies are shown to lead to Arrhenius plots following the Meyer-Neldel Rule.

- From calculations of semiconductor interfacecharge, oxide voltage and tunneling currents for MOSsystems with equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) in therange of 1 nm, rules are suggested for making itpossible to compare leakage quality of different oxideswith an accuracy of a factor 2 – 3 if the EOT is known.The standard procedure suggested gives considerablybetter accuracy than the commonly used method todetermine leakage at VFB+1V for n-type and VFB-1V forp-type substrates.

Konferensbidrag (refereegranskat)abstract
- The paper presents the results of electrical characterization in the wide temperature range (120-320 K) of the interface and bulk properties of high-k LaLuO3 dielectric deposited by molecular beam deposition (MBD) on silicon substrate. The energy distribution of interface state density is presented and typical maxima of 1.2×1011 and 2.5×10 11 eV-1 cm-2 were found at about 0.25-0.3 eV from the silicon valence band. The charge carrier transport through the dielectric at the forward bias was found to occur via Poole-Frenkel mechanism, while variable range hopping conduction (Mott's law) controls the current at the reverse bias.

- The authors report on the investigation of amorphous Gd-based silicates as high-k dielectrics. Two different stacks of amorphous gadolinium oxide (Gd(2)O(3)) and silicon oxide (SiO(2)) on silicon substrates are compared after annealing at temperatures up to 1000 degrees C. Subsequently formed metal oxide semiconductor capacitors show a significant reduction in the capacitance equivalent thicknesses after annealing. Transmission electron microscopy, medium energy ion scattering, and x-ray diffraction analysis reveal distinct structural changes such as consumption of the SiO(2) layer and formation of amorphous Gd silicate. The controlled formation of Gd silicates in this work indicates a route toward high-k dielectrics compatible with conventional, gate first complementary metal-oxide semiconductor integration schemes.

Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- We investigate the potential of gadolinium silicate (GdSiO) as a thermally stable high-k gate dielectric in a gate first integration scheme. There silicon diffuses into gadolinium oxide (Gd2O3) from a silicon oxide (SiO2) interlayer specifically prepared for this purpose. We report on the scaling potential based on detailed material analysis. Gate leakage current densities and EOT values are compatible with an ITRS requirement for low stand by power (LSTP). The applicability of this GdSiO process is demonstrated by fully functional silicon on insulator (SOI) metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistors (MOSFETs). (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.
