The influence of surface electric fields on the chemical passivation of Si-SiO2 interfaces after firing

In this work it is demonstrated that the presence of surface electric fields during a post-deposition anneal can impact the chemical passivation of SiO2 + SiNx double layer stacks. Although the surface passivation generated in such dielectrics is well known, we demonstrate that an electric field pre...
