dc.description.abstract | To improve the water-resistance of MgO-based metal-insulator-metal (MIM) capacitors, BeO/MgO/BeO/MgO/BeO (BMBMB) stacked layers with a total thickness of similar to 10 nm (2/2/2/2/2 nm) were deposited at 335 degrees C by atomic layer deposition (ALD) using bis(cyclopentadienyl)magnesium [Mg(Cp)(2)] and diethyl beryllium (DEB) as Mg and Be precursors, respectively, and O-3 as an oxygen source. High-quality MgO and BeO single films were produced under optimized ALD conditions. The bottom electrode was a sputtered 50 nm-thick TiN layer, and a 10/30 nm-thick TiN/Pt layer served as the top electrode. The adoption of BeO layers in the insulator stack enabled excellent water-resistance, while the MgO-based capacitor suffered from severely degraded electrical performance during water exposure. Moreover, the capacitors with BeO layer insertion showed a significantly reduced leakage current density (J) to similar to 10(-9) A cm(-2) at an applied bias of +0.8 V even without further annealing treatment during the aggressive water immersion test. Even with a relatively low k of the inserted BeO layer, the equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) could be further decreased to similar to 3.5 nm for the 10 nm-thick BMBMB stacked layer, which was similar to the EOT value of the single MgO film with identical thickness. The chemical composition, interface properties, chemical bonding, and crystallization behaviors were comparatively studied for single and stacked layers. This work demonstrated that the BMBMB thin film stack could be a desirable moisture and leakage current blocking layer in recent electronic devices with nanoscale dimensions. | - |
