摘要：
The characteristics of ZrO2 gate dielectric along with the interfacial layer on O-2- and N2O-plasma treated partially strain-compensated Si0.69Ge0.3C0.01/Si heterostructure have been investigated using spectroscopic and electrical measurements. Time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy and x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses show the formation of an oxygen or nitrogen rich Zr-germano-silicate interfacial layer between the deposited ZrO 2 and SiGeC films. The electrical properties under a constant current stressing have been studied using a metal-oxide-semiconductor structure. The N2O-plasma treated SiGeC film has a higher effective dielectric constant (k greater than or similar to 14) than that of the O-2-plasma treated (k greater than or similar to 12) films.
