Demonstration of HfO<sub>2</sub>-Based Gate Dielectric With &#x007E;0.8-nm Equivalent Oxide Thickness on Si<sub>0.8</sub>Ge<sub>0.2</sub> by Trimethylaluminum Pre-Treatment and Al Scavenger

We disclosed HfO2-based dielectric of superb electrical properties on p-type Si0.8Ge0.2 substrate using an interfacial layer (IL) formed by trimethylaluminum (TMA) pre-treatment and Al scavenger. Our results revealed that the interface trap density (Dit) value and the gate leakage current (JG) could...
