Abstract :
A novel intrinsic mobility extraction methodology for high-κ gate stacks that only requires a capacitance-voltage and pulsed Id-Vg measurement is demonstrated on SiO2 and high-κ gate dielectric transistors and is benchmarked to other reported mobility extraction techniques. Fast transient charging effects in high-κ gate stacks are shown to cause the mobility extracted using conventional dc-based techniques to be lower than the intrinsic mobility.
