Abstract :
In this paper, we study the growth properties of HfO2 on Ge by MOCVD, using TDEAH and O2 precursors and compare the results to similar layers deposited on silicon substrates. Analysis techniques include ellipsometry, Rutherford Backscattering Spectra (RBS), transmission electron microscopy (TEM),X-ray diffraction (XRD), and time of flight secondary ion mass spectroscopy (TOFSIMS).
