Abstract
This paper presents the results of the characterization of high-k dielectric films deposited by liquid source misted chemical deposition (LSMCD) in a cluster tool for advanced MOS gates. Electrical characterization (capacitance-voltage and current-voltage) was performed in conjunction with atomic force microscopy (AFM). The effects of in situ surface conditioning prior to deposition were also examined. Among processes investigated, the sequence depositing high-k dielectric, e.g. SrTa2O6, on nitrided oxide interlayer grown by a UV/NO process showed very good promise.
