- 1. Appl. Phys. Lett. 91, 133507 (2007) , “Identification of atomic-scale defect structure involved in the negative bias temperature instability in plasma-nitrided devices”, J. P. Campbell, P. M. Lenahan, A. T. Krishnan, and S. KrishnanWe utilize a very sensitive electron spin resonance technique called spin-dependent tunneling to identify defect centers involved in the negative bias temperature instability in plasma-nitrided p-channel metal-oxide-silicon field-effect transistors. The defect's 29Si hyperfine... (Read more)

SmithLow pressure chemical vapor deposition of Si3N4 on oxidized Si (111) surfaces causes a change in the properties of the dominant interface defect, the Pb center, observed by electron paramagnetic resonance. The change in the signature of the... (Read more)

Tsukada, K. Hamada, S. Fujieda, and Y. MochizukiThe variable retention time phenomenon has recently been highlighted as an important issue in dynamic random access memory (DRAM) technology. Based on electrically detected magnetic resonance and simulation studies, we suggest that a single Si vacancy-oxygen complex defect is responsible for this... (Read more)

LenahanWe utilize a very sensitive electron paramagnetic resonance technique called spin-dependent recombination to observe and identify defect centers generated by modest negative bias and moderately elevated temperatures in fully processed p-channel metal-oxide-silicon field-effect transistors....

- 5. J. Appl. Phys. 95, 4096 (2004) , “Nitridation effects on Pb center structures at SiO2/Si„(100) interfaces ”,Interfacial defect structures of NO-nitride oxide on Si(100) were characterized by electron spin resonance spectroscopy. We confirmed that the effective g values of the Pb1 center are affected by interfacial nitridation even at a small nitrogen concentration of 5 at. %, while those of the Pb0 center proved to be unchanged. We observed that the shifted Pb1 line appeared gradually with interfacial nitrogen concentration, which suggests that the nitrogen-induced modified structure substitutes for the original Pb1 structure. Angular variations of the shifted Pb1 lines were also significantly different from those of pure oxide. Based on our analysis, we attributed the g value shift of the Pb1 center to dangling bond tilting, caused by the displacement of nearest-neighbor Si atoms. (Read more)

Lett. 82, 3677-3679 (2003) , “Interface defects responsible for negative-bias temperature instability in plasma-nitrided SiON/Si(100) systems”, Shinji Fujieda, Yoshinao Miura, and Motofumi SaitohInterface defects generated by negative-bias temperature stress (NBTS) in an ultrathin plasma- nitrided SiON/Si(100) system were characterized by using D2 annealing, conductance-frequency measurements, and electron-spin resonance measurements. D2 annealing was shown to lower... (Read more)

Okonogi, K. HamadaWe used electrically detected magnetic resonance to study the microscopic structure of ion-implantation-induced point defects that remained in large-scale Si integrated circuits (Si LSIs). Two types of defects were detected in the source/drain (n+-type) region of... (Read more)
- 8. Appl. Phys. Lett. 80, 1945-1947 (2002) , “Density of states of Pb1 Si/SiO2 interface trap centers”, J. P. Campbell and P. M. LenahanThe electronic properties of the (100) Si/SiO2 interfacial defect called Pb1 are quite controversial. We present electron spin resonance measurements that demonstrate: (1) that the Pb1 defects have levels in the silicon band gap, (2) that... (Read more)
- 9. Jpn. J. Appl. Phys. 40, 2840 (2001) , “Spin-Dependent Trap-Assisted Tunneling Current in Ultra-Thin Gate Dielectrics”,We have characterized the leakage current paths of ultra-thin gate dielectrics using spin-dependent tunneling (SDT) spectroscopy. A spin-dependent current was detected in metal-oxide-semiconductor diodes with chemical-vapor-deposition SiN gate films with thickness less than 3 nm. We examined the nature of the trap sites in terms of g-value, bias-dependent signal intensity, and magnetic-field orientation dependence. The main feature of the observed spectrum is attributed to a paramagnetic Si site in the SiN films. By using a quantitative model of electron spin-polarization, we were able to estimate the ratio of trap-assisted current to the total leakage current. (Read more)

NashimotoWe show that Cat-CVD silicon nitride films contain more than 1019 cm−3 nitrogen-bonded Si dangling bonds, similarly to the case for conventional CVD films. However, the charge-trapping behavior of the Cat-CVD films is found to be quite different, in spite of the same origin for the dominant... (Read more)

Conley, Jr.Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) measurements of Si/SiO2 systems began over 30 years ago. Most EPR studies of Si/SiO2 systems have dealt with two families of defects: Pb centers and E centers. Several variants from each group have...
