Research Abstract |
Native defects existing in the three constituent regions of MOS (Metal Oxide Semiconductor) device, gate insulator, silicon substrate, and their interface, were examined with a first-principles method in order to elucidate their atomistic properties concerned with reliability issues of MOS devices. A Pb center defect in a Si/SiO_2 interface, B_<12> cluster in a Si substrate, oxygen vacancy and hafnium vacancy in HfO_2 were practically investigated and their fundamental characteristics were revealed in detail.
