ABSTRACTBa1−xCaxTi1-yZryO3 materials have very high dielectric constant (up to 30,000) in the bulk form. In this paper, we are presenting the electrical and structural characteristics of undoped and 0.4% Mg-doped Ba0.96Ca0.04Ti0.84Zr0.16O3 (BCTZ) thin films on Pt/Ti/SiO2/Si substrates. The BCTZ films were deposited by spin on metal-organic decomposition method and annealed at a temperature 600-900°C in oxygen environment. The annealed thin films were characterized by X-ray diffraction. The electrical characteristics of the annealed thin films were analyzed by capacitance–voltage and current–voltage measurements. The as-annealed thin films were post- annealed in nitrogen and oxygen environments and the effect of post-annealing on their electrical characteristics were also presented in conjunction with 0.4% Mg doping effect of BCTZ thin films for possible high dielectric constant material applications.

Down scaling of complementary metal oxide semiconductor transistors has put limitations on silicon dioxide to be used as an effective dielectric. It is necessary to replace the SiO 2 with a physically thicker layer of oxides of high dielectric constant. Thus high k dielectrics are used to suppress the existing challenges for CMOS scaling. Many new oxides are being evaluated as gate dielectrics such as Ta2O5 , HfO2 , ZrO2 , La2O3 , HfO2 , TiO2 , Al2O3 , Y2O3 etc but it was soon found that these oxides in many respects have inferior electronic properties to SiO2 . But the the choice alone of suitable metal oxide with high dielectric constant is not sufficient to overcome the scaling challenges. The various deposition techniques and the conditions under which the thin films are deposited plays important role in deciding the structural and electrical properties of the deposited films. This paper discusses in brief the various deposition conditions which are employed to improve the structural and electrical properties of the deposited films.

AbstractNanoscale oxide thin films such as Ba1‐xSrxTiO3 (BST), SrBi2Ta2O9 (SBT), and PbZr1‐xTixO3 (PZT) that have a high dielectric constant and excellent ferroelectric properties have been receiving greatly increased attention, especially for high density memories in next generation integrated circuits. However, with increasing deposition temperature the surface roughness of the films increases, which results in high leakage current, and when the thickness of oxide films is decreased, the apparent bulk‐like properties of thin films tend to worsen due to the increased influence of the interface. To solve these problems, novel MOCVD techniques, plasma enhanced deposition, and a two step process, were developed for high quality oxide thin films.
