Popis: | In this paper, we report ultra thin high quality nitride/oxide gate dielectrics prepared by rapid thermal NH 3 nitridation of Si followed by in-situ N 2 O oxidation (NH 3 +H 2 O process). These films show excellent interface properties, significant lower leakage current (∼10 2 X), enhanced reliability, and superior boron diffusion barrier properties compared with SiO 2 of identical equivalent oxide thickness (Tox,eq). |
