摘要

Silicon dioxide (SiO_2) has been the primary gate insulator material since MOS ICs were first developed. To achieve the scaling levels currently required by advanced IC technologies, the SiO_2 layers in these devices need to be extremely thin to an extent that we have reached the point where electron tunneling through the gate oxide causes prohibitively large increases in power consumption as well as reliability problems. In order to circumvent these limitations, alternative gate insulators with high dielectric constant (high-K) are intensively being exp lored both in academy and industry. One of the most widely investigated high-K dielectrics is by far hafnium oxide (HfO_2), which is already considered more than a promising material. Because of the higher permittivity of HfO_2 (≈25eo) compared to SiO_2 (≈3.9εo), thicker dielectric layers of HfO_2 yield the same capacitances values as thinner SiO 2 films, with the consequent reduction of the tunneling current. This improves the gate control over the channel current and reduces the risk of a premature oxide breakdown caused by the generation of defects.
