Effect of Oxygen on Ni-Silicided FUSI Metal Gate
(2006-01)Continual evolution of the CMOS technology requires thinner gate dielectric to maintain high performance. However, when moving into the sub-65 nm CMOS generation, the traditional poly-Si gate approach cannot effectively ... -
TEM Study on the Evolution of Ge Nanocrystals in Si Oxide Matrix as a Function of Ge Concentration and the Si Reduction Process
(2006-01)Growth and evolution of germanium (Ge) nanocrystals embedded into a silicon oxide (SiO₂) system have been studied based on the Ge content of co-sputtered Ge-SiO₂ films using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and X-ray ... -
Native Point Defects in yttria as a High-Dielectric-Constant Gate Oxide Material: A First-Principles Study
(2006-01)Yttria (Y₂O₃) has become a promising gate oxide material to replace silicon dioxide in metal-oxide-semiconductor (MOS) devices. The characterization of native point defect in Y₂O₃ is essential to understand the behavior ...
