摘要:
A method for making a semiconductor device is described. That method comprises forming an oxide layer on a substrate, and forming a high-k dielectric layer on the oxide layer. The oxide layer and the high-k dielectric layer are then annealed at a sufficient temperature for a sufficient time to generate a gate dielectric with a graded dielectric constant.
摘要:
Embodiments of a phase-stable amorphous high-κ dielectric layer in a device and methods for forming the phase-stable amorphous high-κ dielectric layer in a device are generally described herein. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.

摘要:
Controlled deposition of HfO2 and ZrO2 dielectrics is generally described. In one example, a microelectronic apparatus includes a substrate and a dielectric film coupled with the substrate, the dielectric film including ZrO2 and HfO2 wherein the ratio of Zr to Hf in the dielectric film is about 5 to 10 atoms of Zr for every 1 atom of Hf to reduce ToxE or reduce Jox of the dielectric film.
摘要:
A buffer layer and a high-k metal oxide dielectric may be formed over a smooth silicon substrate. The substrate smoothness may reduce column growth of the high-k metal oxide gate dielectric. The surface of the substrate may be saturated with hydroxyl terminations prior to deposition.
