摘要
Hafnium oxide films are deposited on Si(100)substrates by means of rf magnetron sputtering.The interfacial structure is studied using high-resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM)and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS),and the electrical properties of the Au/HfO_(2)/Si stack are analyzed by frequency−dependent capacitance-voltage(C–V–f)measurements.The amorphous interfacial layer between HfO_(2) and the Si substrate is observed by the HRTEM method.From the results of XPS,the interfacial layer comprises hafnium silicate and silicon oxide.For C–V–f measurements,the C–V plots show a peak at a low frequency and the change in frequency has effects on the intensity of the peak.As expected,rapid thermal annealing can passivate the interface states of the HfO_(2)/Si stack.
