Issue Date: | 2015 | Source: | Applied physics letters, 2015, v. 106, no. 12, 123504, p. 123504-1-123504-4 | Abstract: | InGaAs metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) capacitors with composite gate dielectric consisting of Ti-based oxynitride (TiON)/Ta-based oxynitride (TaON) multilayer are fabricated by RF sputtering. The interfacial and electrical properties of the TiON/TaON/InGaAs and TaON/TiON/InGaAs MOS structures are investigated and compared. Experimental results show that the former exhibits lower interface-state density (1.0 x 10(12) cm(-2) eV(-1) at midgap), smaller gate leakage current (9.5 x 10(-5) A/cm(2) at a gate voltage of 2 V), larger equivalent dielectric constant (19.8), and higher reliability under electrical stress than the latter. The involved mechanism lies in the fact that the ultrathin TaON interlayer deposited on the sulfur-passivated InGaAs surface can effectively reduce the defective states and thus unpin the Femi level at the TaON/InGaAs interface, improving the electrical properties of the device. | Publisher: | American Institute of Physics | Journal: | Applied physics letters | ISSN: | 0003-6951 | EISSN: | 1077-3118 | DOI: | 10.1063/1.4916539 | Rights: | © 2015 AIP Publishing LLC.
