摘要：
We investigated the influences of gate metals (poly-Si, NiSi, Ni3Si) on the time dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) reliability of phase-controlled Ni-full-silicide/HfSiON n-FETs. The TDDB reliability of the NiSi-electrode FETs was comparable to that of poly-Si-electrode FETs. However, the reliability was degraded by further Ni-enriching to Ni3Si. We presume that the degradation of the base SiO2 layer is responsible for this. We do not relate the TDDB degradation to Ni diffusion into the insulator, but rather to the strain that is higher in Ni3Si samples.
