摘要：

There is an intense search for metal gates for the next generation metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor. The barrier height (Phi(0)) at its interface with a gate dielectric must be known to select a suitable metal. In this letter, internal photoemission was used to determine Phi(0) of two technologically important ternary metals, [TaN/TaSiN] and [TaN/TaCN], on a single SiO(2) layer and a [HfO(2)/SiO(2)] stack. On SiO(2), Phi(0) was found to be 3.36 and 3.55 eV at the [TaN/TaSiN] stack/SiO(2) and [TaN/TaCN stack]/SiO(2) interfaces, respectively. However, on the [HfO(2)/SiO(2)] stack, Phi(0) was found be the same at 2.5 eV for both metal stacks. These results are compared to flatband voltage measurements.
