Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In this study, we have fabricated the ultra-thin hafnium dioxide (HfO2) film with a high dielectric constant on clean Si(110)-16x2 surface, which is a next-generation Si substrate material, for sustainable semiconductor device development. And, we have evaluated the physical properties at interface of Hf/SiOx/Si(110) and HfO2/SiOx/Si(110) ultrathin films with photoelectron spectroscopy and coincidence spectroscopy. As a result, we have observed the difference structures of Si L23VV Auger-electron spectra at same SiOx interface components between Hf/SiOx/Si(110) and HfO2/SiOx/Si(110). These results indicate that physical property at interface where has same SiOx components is different depending on chemical state and structure of Hf located at surface. From our result, the development of atomic scale semiconductor device needs control of physical property at interface.
