  • Abstract
    The RF sputtered La2O3/ p-GaAs MOS capacitors with and without Si interface passivation layer (IPL) have been fabricated and characterized. It has been observed that the presence of (La2O3)1-x(SiO2)x at the interface improved the device characteristics in terms of oxide capacitance (~3.3 fF/μm2), frequency dispersion (~8%) and interface state density (~1.2×1012 cm-2 eV-1). The best device performance was obtained for Al/ La2O3/Si/p-GaAs samples annealed at 500oC.
