Abstract

In this paper, for the first time, we report high quality CVD hafnium oxynitride (HfOxNy) MOSFETs with conventional self-aligned poly-Si gate. These CVD HfOxNy films deposited using TDEAH (Tetrakisdiethylamino hafnium, C16H40N4Hf) arid NH3 remain amorphous after 900∼950 °C annealing. Compared to HfO2, HfOxNy exhibits reduced leakage current by 2∼3 orders of magnitude, excellent boron penetration immunity, superior thermal stability of both EOT and leakage current after high temperature annealing, and excellent reliability.
