Abstract
In this paper, for the first time, we report high quality CVD hafnium oxynitride (HfOxNy) MOSFETs with conventional self-aligned poly-Si gate. These CVD HfOxNy films deposited using TDEAH (Tetrakisdiethylamino hafnium, C/sub 16/H/sub 40/N/sub 4/Hf) and NH/sub 3/ remain amorphous after 900/spl sim/950/spl deg/C annealing. Compared to HfO/sub 2/, HfOxNy exhibits reduced leakage current by 2/spl sim/3 orders of magnitude, excellent boron penetration immunity, superior thermal stability of both EOT and leakage current after high temperature annealing, and excellent reliability.Keywords
