Abstract

The laser annealing effects on the TEOS (Tetra-Ethyl-Ortho-Silicate) oxide of MOS (AI/TEOS/n+ Silicon ) structures was investigated with different initial oxide conditions, such as breakdown field. The breakdown field increased upto the 170 mJ/cm2 with increasing laser energy density and decreased at 220 mJ/cm2. It is considered that the increase of breakdown field is originated from the restore of strains which exist mainly at the metal/oxide interface.
