  • Abstract
    The authors investigate the enhanced thermal oxidation of tantalum using oxygen-ion implantation. A comparison of the electrical and dielectric properties is made between the oxygen-implanted thermal oxides and of those fabricated without implantation. The ion-implanted tantalum-oxide films are shown to be superior to the unimplanted layers for the fabrication of oxide capacitors.
