研究目的
To study the effects of plasma treatment on flat band voltage (Vfb) and equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) using Metal-organic Chemical Vapor Deposition (MOCVD) TiN film as p-MOSFETs metal gate electrode.
研究成果
Plasma treatment of MOCVD TiN films favors the formation of Ti-N bonds, decreases Ti-C bonds, and increases PMOS Vfb shift. However, it also accelerates interfacial oxide formation, increasing EOT. The work function and EOT are influenced by the thickness of TiN and plasma treatment conditions, with a critical thickness for work function stabilization.
研究不足
The study focuses on the effects of plasma treatment on MOCVD TiN films for p-MOSFETs metal gate electrodes, with potential limitations in applicability to other materials or configurations. The optimization of plasma treatment conditions for maximum Vfb shift and minimal EOT increase may require further investigation.
