Abstract :
The effects of NH3 nitridation temperature (800-1000°C) and time (15-90 s) in a dry oxidation NH3-nitridation-N2O oxynitridation sequence on the time-dependent dielectric breakdown (TDDB) characteristics of oxynitrided SiO2 films are investigated. It is found that high-temperature (1000°C) and short-time (30 sec) NH3 nitridation gives excellent TDDB characteristics
