    摘要: In one embodiment, a method for forming a morphologically stable dielectric material is provided which includes exposing a substrate to a hafnium precursor, a silicon precursor and an oxidizing gas to form hafnium silicate material during a chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process and subsequently and optionally exposing the substrate to a post deposition anneal, a nitridation process and a thermal annealing process. In some examples, the hafnium and silicon precursors used during a metal-organic CVD (MOCVD) process are alkylamino compounds, such as tetrakis(diethylamino)hafnium (TDEAH) and tris(dimethylamino)silane (Tris-DMAS). In another embodiment, other metal precursors may be used to form a variety of metal silicates containing tantalum, titanium, aluminum, zirconium, lanthanum or combinations thereof.

In another example, an ALD process to form a metal oxide includes exposing the substrate sequentially to a metal precursor and an oxidizing gas containing water vapor formed by a catalytic water vapor generator. In an alternative embodiment, a method for forming a dielectric material is provide which includes exposing a substrate to a deposition process to form a metal oxide layer and subsequently exposing the substrate to a nitridation plasma process and a thermal annealing process to form metal oxynitride (e.g., HfOxNy).
