MOS diodes with crystalline Ba0.7Sr0.3O gate oxide and Au gate metal on n- and p-Si(001) were produced,
which have a dielectric constant of єr≈28. The oxides were
grown on structured Si(001) in a UHV chamber by MBE in oxygen ambient conditions and
capped with 100nm Au for ex-situ electrical measurements. I-V measurements show low
leakage currents compared to SiO2 with the same EOT. From C-V measurements we
extracted with the Terman method a density of interface states, Dit, of only
≈1010eV−1cm−2.
We tested the thermal stability of these oxides and investigated them with X-Ray Photoelectron Spectroscopy (XPS).
They are fully stable up to 450∘C but convert to other chemical species, most likely silicates, at higher temperatures. But even at 700∘C no formation of SiO2 at the interface to Si was detectable.
To improve the adhesion between the Au gate metal and the oxide we evaporated a thin layer of Al at the Au/oxide interface. This causes a thickness dependent shift of the flatband voltage. We will present our XPS measurements of the chemical origin of this shift.
