Thin LaxZr1-xO2- x=0.25 high permittivity k films are grown on Si100 by atomic layer deposition at 300 °C using iPrCp3La, MeCp2ZrMeOMe and O3 species. Their properties are studied by grazing incidence x-ray diffraction, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electrical measurements on the as-grown films and after vacuum annealing at 600 °C. Annealed films feature resistance to hygroscopicity, a large k value of around 30 and an acceptable leakage current density. A low-k silica-rich interlayer is also evidenced at both pristine and annealed high-k/ Si interfaces.

Abstract
Thin LaxZr1-xO2- x=0.25 high permittivity k films are grown on Si100 by atomic layer deposition at 300 °C using iPrCp3La, MeCp2ZrMeOMe and O3 species. Their properties are studied by grazing incidence x-ray diffraction, high resolution transmission electron microscopy, electron energy loss spectroscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and electrical measurements on the as-grown films and after vacuum annealing at 600 °C. Annealed films feature resistance to hygroscopicity, a large k value of around 30 and an acceptable leakage current density. A low-k silica-rich interlayer is also evidenced at both pristine and annealed high-k/ Si interfaces.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
