Popis: We investigated the electrical and structural properties of TbScO3 as an alternative gate dielectric. Rutherford backscattering spectrometry revealed a stoichiometric film while X-ray photo-electron spectroscopy indicated silicate formation at the interface. Capacitance-Voltage measurements resulted in well behaving C-V curves with no hysteresis and a low density of interface trap states in the range of 4x1011 (eVcm2)-1. Fully depleted (FD) SOI and sSOI MOSFETs fabricated with a full replacement gate process show a steep subthreshold slope down to 81 mV/dec and high Ion/Ioff ratios up to 108. Low field electron mobilities of 181 cm2/Vsec for SOI and 350 cm2/Vsec for sSOI, were extracted, which are comparable to MOSFETs with Hf based oxides. Gate induced drain leakage (GIDL) investigations indicate a trap assisted band to band tunneling.
