摘要
A new method for the combination analysis of high-resolution Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy (HRBS) and angle-resolved X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (AR-XPS) is proposed for accurate depth profiling of chemical states. In this method, attenuation lengths [ALs) for the photoelectrons are first determined so that the AR-XPS result is consistent with the HRBS result. Depth profiling of the chemical states are then performed in the AR-XPS analysis using the composition-depth profiles obtained by HRBS as constrained conditions. This method is successfully applied to Hf-based gate stack structures demonstrating its feasibility. Copyright (C) 2008 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
