Abstract

The structural and electrical properties of the HfO2/HfSixOy thin films prepared by the oxidation of Hf on the Si substrate were studied. An electrically stable amorphous HfSixOy layer was formed between HfO2 and Si by the oxidation of the Hf metal films. However, the oxide capacitance value was lowered by the formation of this layer. Both as-oxidized and N2 annealed samples demonstrated the excellent electrical characteristics. The EOT and the leakage current density of Pd-HfO2/HfSixOy-Si capacitor were 1.4 nm and 5 × 10-3 A/cm2 at 2 V after compensating the flatband voltage of 1 V.
