Influence of Polysilicon Processing on the Quality of Thin RTP/Furnace Gate Oxides
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 21 February 2011
Abstract
Thin layers of oxides (10–11nm) were fabricated by rapid thermal (RTP) or furnace oxidation. The RTP oxides were grown at different temperatures and were exposed to a two step post oxidation anneal (POA). The furnace oxides were grown at one temperature and received different POA/s. As gate metallization, in-situ phosphorus-doped polysilicon was used. Post poly anneal (PPA) is carried out in the RTP system using a set of temperatures. After having defined MOS structures by photolithography oxide charges, breakdown voltages and breakdown charges were determined. For different current densities, FN-voltage shift during constant current injection was monitored to make lifetime predictions. Received data were correlated to the different process parameters.
