- 1. Appl. Phys. Lett. 90, 073507 (2007) , “Fermi-level pinning at polycrystalline silicon-HfO2 interface as a source of drain and gate current 1/f noise”, P. Magnone, F. Crupi, L. Pantisano, and C. PaceThe impact of a submonolayer of HfO2 sandwiched between the SiON gate dielectric and the polycrystalline silicon layer on the low frequency noise of a n-channel metal oxide semiconductor field effect transistor is investigated. Fermi-level pinning at polycrystalline... (Read more)
- 2. Appl. Phys. Lett. 90, 052901 (2007) , “Process-dependent defects in Si/HfO2/Mo gate oxide heterostructures”, S. Walsh, L. Fang, J. K. Schaeffer, E. Weisbrod, and L. J. BrillsonThe authors have used low energy electron-excited nanoscale-depth-resolved spectroscopy to probe the bulk and interface defect states of ultrathin Mo/HfO2/Si with conventional process sequences. Multiple deep level emissions are evident below the 5.9 eV HfO2 near band edge,... (Read more)
- 3. Appl. Phys. Lett. 90, 042105 (2007) , “Stress induced leakage current mechanism in thin Hf-silicate layers”, A. Paskaleva, M. Lemberger, and A. J. BauerStress induced leakage current (SILC) in thin Hf-silicate layers and the mechanisms of its creation are examined. A very strong polarity and thickness dependence as well as partial recovery of SILC are observed. It is suggested that the trapping in preexisting sites influences SILC by two ways: (1)...

- 4. J. Appl. Phys. 101, 024101 (2007) , “Defect states in the high-dielectric-constant gate oxide HfSiO4”, K. Xiong, Y. Du, K. Tse, and J. RobertsonHafnium silicate has a high dielectric constant and is a leading candidate to act as a gate dielectric. The defect energy levels have been calculated. The oxygen vacancy is found to give rise to Si-like levels which lie within the band gap of Si. The vacancy states are very localized and are... (Read more)
- 5. J. Appl. Phys. 101, 013703 (2007) , “Electron spin resonance study of as-deposited and annealed (HfO2)x(SiO2)1−x high-κ dielectrics on Si”, B. B. Triplett, P. T. Chen, Y. Nishi, P. H. Kasai, J. J. Chambers, and L. ColomboElectron spin resonance measurements on 4 and 40 nm thick (HfO2)0.6(SiO2)0.4 and (HfO2)0.4(SiO2)0.6 high-κ films on (100)Si wafers detected Pb0 and Pb1... (Read more)
- 6. Phys. Rev. B 75, 193203 (2007) , “Hf defects in c-Si and their importance for the HfO2/Si interface: Density-functional calculations”, Wanderlã L. Scopel, Antônio J. R. da Silva, and A. FazzioWe have studied, using ab initio density functional theory calculations, substitutional and interstitial Hf impurities in c-Si, for various charge states. Our results indicate that (1) the tetrahedral interstitial defect is energetically more favorable than the substitutional and (2)... (Read more)
- 7. Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 196101 (2007) , “Oxygen Vacancies in High Dielectric Constant Oxide-Semiconductor Films”, Supratik Guha and Vijay NarayananWe provide evidence that the oxygen vacancy is a dominant intrinsic electronic defect in nanometer scaled hafnium oxide dielectric films on silicon, relevant to microelectronics technology. We demonstrate this by developing a general model for the kinetics of oxygen vacancy formation in... (Read more)
- 8. Appl. Phys. Lett. 89, 262904 (2006) , “Oxygen vacancy in monoclinic HfO2: A consistent interpretation of trap assisted conduction, direct electron injection, and optical absorption experiments”, Peter Broqvist and Alfredo PasquarelloThe authors calculate energy levels associated with the oxygen vacancy in monoclinic HfO2 using a hybrid density functional which accurately reproduces the experimental band gap. The most stable charge states are obtained for varying Fermi level in the HfO2 band gap. To compare... (Read more)
- 9. Appl. Phys. Lett. 89, 222101 (2006) , “Reversible creation and annihilation of a local leakage path in HfO2/GeOx stacked gate dielectrics: A direct observation by ultrahigh vacuum conducting atomic force microscopy”, K. Yamamura, K. Kita, A. Toriumi, and K. KyunoBy direct observation using ultrahigh vacuum conducting atomic force microscopy, it is found that a local leakage path in HfO2/GeOx stacks created by an electrical stress with a positive tip bias annihilates after applying a reverse tip bias. The creation and... (Read more)
- 10. Appl. Phys. Lett. 89, 152904 (2006) , “First principles calculations of oxygen vacancy passivation by fluorine in hafnium oxide”, Wei Chen, Qing-Qing Sun, Shi-Jin Ding, David Wei Zhang, and Li-Kang WangThe fluorine incorporation into HfO2 with oxygen vacancies has been investigated using first principles calculations. The authors show that atomic fluorine can efficiently passivate the neutral oxygen vacancy with excess energies of 4.98 and 4.39 eV for threefold- and... (Read more)
