Abstract
- In this work, the band gap, interfacial properties and electrical properties of Gd doped ZrO 2 high-k gate dielectric films deposited by solution method have been systematically investigated. Results have shown that Gd doping can increase band gap energy from 5.65 to 5.92 eV and effectively restrain the formation of low-k SiO x interfacial layer between dielectric and Si substrate. Moreover, the conduction band offset is increased from 2.57 to 3.06 eV by Gd doping, which effectively reduces the leakage current density to 1.8 × 10 −6 A/cm 2 . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
