The Electrical and Interfacial Properties of Metal-High-$kappa$ Oxide-Semiconductor Field-Effect Transistors With $hbox{LaAlO}_{3}$

摘要

$hbox{LaAlO}_{3}$ is a promising candidate for gate dielectric of future VLSI devices. In this letter, n-channel metal–oxide–semiconductor field-effect transistors with $hbox{LaAlO}_{3}$ gate dielectric were fabricated, and the electron mobility degradation mechanisms were studied. The leakage current density is $hbox{7.6} times hbox{10}^{-5} hbox{A/cm}^{2}$ at $-!$ 1 V. The dielectric constant is 17.5. The surface-recombination velocity, the minority-carrier lifetime, and the effective capture cross section of surface states were extracted from gated-diode measurement. The rate of threshold voltage change with temperature $(Delta V_{T} / Delta T)$ from 11 K to 400 K is $-!$ 1.51 mV/K, and the electron mobility limited by surface roughness is proportional to $E_{rm eff}^{-0.66}$.
