Atomic Layer Deposition of High Quality HfO2Using In-Situ Formed Hydrophilic Oxide as an Interfacial Layer

Abstract: High-quality HfO 2 cannot be grown directly on Si substrate using atomic layer deposition (ALD), and an interfacial oxide layer is needed. Traditionally, interfacial oxide layer is formed either in SC1 solution (2 NH 4 OH: 4 H 2 O 2 : 200 H 2 O) or by ozonated water spraying. A highly hydrophilic SiO 2 interfacial layer was in-situ formed in the ALD chamber using 1 cycle of ozone and water. The HfO 2 deposited on this interfacial layer showed great growth linearity. The gate leakage current is comparable to th… Show more

“…The deposition rate (1.25 Å /layer) was calculated by the slope of the growth line, and it matches well with previous studies of HfO 2 growth. 26,27,29,30 Fig . 2 shows the cycling performance of bare Si electrodes, Si coated with 5 layers (0.63 nm), 10 layers (12.5 nm), and 20 layers (25.1 nm) of HfO 2 under the constant current with a charge/discharge rate equivalent to C/3 (C ¼ 3600 mA/g).…”

“…HfO 2 has been widely used as high-k dielectrics in the semiconductor industry. Moreover, HfO 2 is known for its stability under various conditions, 25,26 which may be desirable for LIB applications. We use X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) to demonstrate the stability of HfO 2 coatings by comparing the cycle-aged electrode coatings with freshly prepared coated electrodes.…”
