摘要

The thickness control for the gate dielectric with an equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) < 2.5 nm is believed to be very sensitive to the preexisting chemical oxides generated from pre-gate clean processes. Wet chemistry cleaning processes normally used prior to gate oxidation can result in the growth of chemical oxides of up to 1.5 nm as measured by ellipsometry. These chemical oxides have been conceived to appreciably influence the electrical thickness of the subsequently prepared gate dielectric. The issue is of particular concern for sub-180 nm MOSFET requiring gate oxides of less than 2.5 nm for conventional oxide - poly Si gate stacks, and minimal interfacial oxides for deposited high-K dielectric gate stacks for sub-100 nm technologies. In this study, the effect of various pre-gate clean strategies that generated chemical oxides of up to 1.2 nm on the electrical thickness of conventional gate oxides and the physical thickness of deposited high-K gate dielectric ZrO_2 was systematically studied. It was found that the impact of chemical oxides on the thickness of thermally grown ultrathin gate oxides as well as ZrO_2 based high-K gate stacks was far less significant than previously conceived.
