Resumo

High quality gate stacks with 0.65 nm of the equivalent oxide thickness and at of the gate leakage have been demonstrated. An -based Si-surface nitridation process was performed prior to deposition. The films were deposited in a metallorganic chemical vapor deposition cluster tool. The metal stacked layers were deposited on by reactive sputtering. The gate stack shows excellent thermal stability, in equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) and leakage after 1000°C annealing. A 10-year time dependent dielectric breakdown lifetime of 1000°C rapid thermal anneal annealed stack is projected at with an .
