| Research Abstract |
Metal-gap-semiconductor diode structures have been fabricated to demonstrate that the termination of dangling bonds at semiconductor surfaces can be analyzed by observing capture and emission of carriers by surface states. It has been demonstrated that the termination level of dangling bonds at semiconductor surfaces can be evaluated by measuring high-frequency capacitance-voltage characteristics of the diode structure. The high-frequency capacitance-voltage measurements of metal-gap-semiconductor diode structures with hydrogen-terminated and oxygen-terminated silicon surfaces indicate that the surface state density reflects process conditions of silicon surfaces. Furthermore, process determining MOS device performances have been ascertained. The reliability of MOSFET devices depends on the quality of the preoxide which is grown on the silicon surface during the temperature ramp-up in the gate oxide formation process. High reliable MOSFET devices can be fabricated by thinning the preoxide. The contac resistance of metal(tungsten)-semiconductor(silicon) contacts depends on the amount of native oxide grown on the silicon surface during from cleaning the silicon surface to the metal film deposition. The low resistance contacts can be formed by suppressing the native oxide growth.
