Schottky Barrier Height Inhomogeneity of Ti／n—GaAs Contact Studied by the I—V—T Technique

The current-voltage characteristics of Ti/n-GaAs Schottky diodes measured over a temperature range of 78-299K have been interpreted on the basis of thermionic emission across an inhomogeneous Schottky contact.The experiment shows that the apparent barrier height (φap) increases from 0.437eV at 78K to 0.698eV at room temperature.the plot of φap versus 1/T does not exhibit a simple linear relationship over the whole temperature range,indicating that the barrier height distribution is more complicated than the frequently observed single Gaussian distribution.A new multi-Gaussian distribution model is developed.Our experimental results can be explained by a double Gaussian distribution of the barrier heights.The weight,the mean barrier height,and the standard deviation of the two Gaussian functions are 0.00001 and 0.99999,0.721 and 0.696,0.069 and 0.012eV,respectively.     

电化学电容-电压法表征等离子体掺杂超浅结

采用电化学电容-电压(ECV)法对等离子体掺杂制备的Si超浅p n结进行了电学表征.通过对超浅p n结样品ECV测试和二次离子质谱(SIMS)测试及比较,发现用ECV测试获得的p 层杂质浓度分布及结深与SIMS测试结果具有良好的一致性,但ECV测试下层轻掺杂n型衬底杂质浓度受上层高浓度掺杂影响很大.ECV测试具有良好的可控性与重复性.对不同退火方法等离子体掺杂形成的超浅结样品的ECV系列测试结果表明,ECV能可靠地表征结深达10nm,杂质浓度达1021cm-3量级的Si超浅结样品,其深度分辨率可达纳米量级,它有望在亚65nm节点CMOS器件的超浅结表征中获得应用.     

Effect of Pretreatment of TaN Substrates on Atomic Layer Deposition Growth of Ru Thin Films

The polycrystalline ruthenium films are grown on TaN substrates by atomic layer deposition （ALD） using bis（cyclopentadienyl） ruthenium [RuCp2] and oxygen as ruthenium precursor and reactant respectively at a deposition temperature of 330℃. The low-energy Ar ion bombardment and Ru pre-deposition are performed to the underlying TaN substrates before ALD process in order to improve the Ru nucleation. X-ray diffraction, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and atomic force microscopy are carried out to characterize the properties of ALD Ru films. The results show that the nucleation density of Ru films with Ar^＋ bombardment to the underlying TaN substrates is much higher than that of the ones without any pretreatment. The possible reasons are discussed.     

用于微测辐射热计的氧化矾热敏材料的温度特性

氧化矾作为非制冷微测辐射热计的热敏材料,电阻率p和电阻温度系数TCR(Temperature Coefficient of Resistance)是表征其性能的重要参数.通过对用离子束溅射得到的氧化矾薄膜在相同时间不同温度下的N2+H.退火实验,我们发现氧化矾薄膜的电阻率p和电阻温度系数TCR之问存在着密切的正相关关系,AES结果表明它们的变化对应着氧化矾热敏材料的O/v比例(或氧空位浓度)的变化.这三个参量随着退火温度的改变而变化,在350～500℃的退火温度范围内,我们发现电阻率p,电阻温度系数TCR以及O/V比例随着温度的变化均出现一个峰值.通过对氧化矾的电阻温度特性的分析,我们讨论了氧化矾薄膜的导电机制.我们认为,用本方法制备的氧化矾薄膜在室温下导电的载流子主要来自于相对较深能级杂质的电离.

Capacitance-voltage characterization of fully silicided gated MOS capacitor

This paper investigates the capacitance-voltage （C-V） measurement on fully silicided （FUSI） gated metal-oxide-semiconductor （MOS） capacitors and the applicability of MOS capacitor models. When the oxide leakage current of an MOS capacitor is large, two-element parallel or series model cannot be used to obtain its real C-V characteristic. A three-element model simultaneously consisting of parallel conductance and series resistance or a four-element model with further consideration of a series inductance should be used. We employed the threeelement and the four-element models with the help of two-frequency technique to measure the Ni FUSI gated MOS capacitors. The results indicate that the capacitance of the MOS capacitors extracted by the three-element model still shows some frequency dispersion, while that extracted by the four-element model is close to the real capacitance, showing little frequency dispersion. The obtained capacitance can be used to calculate the dielectric thickness with quantum effect correction by NCSU C-V program. We also investigated the influence of MOS capacitor＇s area on the measurement accuracy. The results indicate that the decrease of capacitor area can reduce the dissipation factor and improve the measurement accuracy. As a result, the frequency dispersion of the measured capacitance is significantly reduced, and real C-V characteristic can be obtained directly by the series model. In addition, this paper investigates the quasi-static C-V measurement and the photonic high-frequency C-V measurement on Ni FUSI metal gated MOS capacitor with a thin leaky oxide. The results indicate that the large tunneling current through the gate oxide significantly perturbs the accurate measurement of the displacement current, which is essential for the quasi-static C-V measurement. On the other hand, the photonic high-frequency C-V measurement can bypass the leakage problem, and get reliable low-frequency C-V characteristic, which can be used to evaluate whether the full silicidation ha

Trapezoid mesa trench metal-oxide semiconductor barrier Schottky rectifier: an improved Schottky rectifier with better reverse characteristics

An improved structure of Schottky rectifier,called a trapezoid mesa trench metal-oxide semiconductor (MOS) barrier Schottky rectifier (TM-TMBS),is proposed and studied by two-dimensional numerical simulations.Both forward and especially better reverse I-V characteristics,including lower leakage current and higher breakdown voltage,are demonstrated by comparing our proposed TM-TMBS with a regular trench MOS barrier Schottky rectifier (TMBS) as well as a conventional planar Schottky barrier diode rectifier.Optimized device parameters corresponding to the requirement for high breakdown voltage are given.With optimized parameters,TM-TMBS attains a breakdown voltage of 186 V,which is 6.3% larger than that of the optimized TMBS,and a leakage current of 4.3×10 6 A/cm 2,which is 26% smaller than that of the optimized TMBS.The relationship between optimized breakdown voltage and some device parameters is studied.Explanations and design rules are given according to this relationship.
