摘要:
Disclosed is a method for forming metal oxide dielectric layers, more particularly HfO2 dielectric layers, using an atomic layer deposition (ALD) method in which a series of thin intermediate layers are formed and treated with one or more oxidizers and nitrogents before the next intermediate layer is formed on the substrate. The intermediate oxidation treatments reduce the number of organic contaminants incorporated into the metal oxide layer from the organometallic precursors to produce a dielectric layer having improved current leakage characteristics. The dielectric layers formed in this manner remain susceptible to crystallization if exposed to temperatures much above 550° C., so subsequent semiconductor manufacturing processes should be modified or eliminated to avoid such temperatures or limit the duration at such temperatures to maintain the performance of the dielectric materials.

摘要:
A digital predistortion apparatus is provided for predistorting a nonlinear characteristic caused by a wideband power amplifier that amplifies a input signal. The digital predistortion apparatus includes a predistorter, connected to the power amplifier via a digital-to-analog converter (DAC) and a frequency up-converter, for receiving the input signal and compensating for the nonlinear characteristic using a look-up table that depends upon a change in output power of the power amplifier. The digital predistortion apparatus further includes look-up table (LUT) updating block for adaptively updating the look-up table by comparing a feedback signal output from the power amplifier, connected thereto via an analog-to-digital converter (ADC), with the input signal output from the predistorter.
