摘要

A detailed investigation of the effect of nitridation of hafnium silicate on positive bias temperature instability (PBTI) in n+-polySi gate pMOS capacitor structures has been presented. Our analysis shows that nitridation improves the intrinsic oxide breakdown field, reduces the equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) and as-grown surface state density Dit by an order of magnitude. On the other hand, like NBTI degradation, nitridation significantly enhances PBTI degradation in pMOS devices causing reduction in PBTI lifetime at a given applied voltage VG. However, both nitrided and non-nitrided gate stacks reaches 10 year lifetime at an applied gate bias of 1.2 V.
