AbstractHafnium oxide (HfO2) thin films were synthesized from tetrakis(dimethylamino) hafnium (TDMAH) and ozone (O3) by atomic layer deposition (ALD) on 200 mm silicon wafers. Gradual saturation was observed for TDMAH exposure pulse. However O3 showed better saturation behavior for O3exposure. Yet, 100% step coverage was achieved for ~100nm trenches with aspect ratio of 35. Temperature dependence of the deposition rate was studied at susceptor temperature from 160°C to 420°C. The lowest deposition rate was observed at 320°C. Mercury probe measurements indicated the dielectric constant increased from 16 to 20 as susceptor temperature increased from 200°C to 320°C. Selected comparisons with tetrakis (ethylmethylamino) hafnium (TEMAH) were also made.

The growth of HfO2 thin films on a HF-dipped p-Si(100) substrate at 200 °C by atomic-layer deposition (ALD) using Hf[N(C2H5)(CH3)]4 and H2O vapor as precursors is demonstrated. Uniform HfO2 thin films are obtained on a 4-in. silicon wafer, and the energy-band gap and band offset are determined by x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analysis. The as-deposited HfO2 thin film is amorphous and able to crystallize at 500 ∼ 600 °C with only the monoclinic phase. As for the electrical performance of Au–Ti–HfO2–Si metal oxide semiconductor capacitors, a dielectric constant of ∼17.8 and an equivalent oxide thickness value of ∼1.39 nm are obtained from the 40-cycle ALD film after annealing at 500 °C. In addition, the breakdown field is in the range of 5 ∼ 5.5 MV/cm, and the fixed charge density is on the order of 1012 cm−2, depending on the annealing temperatures. The interface quality of HfO2 thin films on silicon is satisfactory with an interface-trap charge density of ∼3.7 × 1011 cm−2 eV−1.
