Abstract

Si3N4 works as a good dielectric on InGaAs by the process optimization. 30 min anneal at 400°C results in Dit ∼ 1012 eV-1cm-2. No influences of ambient gas treatment conditions or treatment order relative to gate metal deposition on C-V behavior and Dit values were observed. Influence of the annealing temperature on C-V behavior and Dit was explored in the range 300°C - 500°C. It was found that 400°C anneal shows the best C-V behavior and the lowest Dit values for the Si3N4 (PECVD)/InGaAs system. Slightly better results of the accumulation frequency dispersion and flatband hysteresis were observed for forming gas treatment compared to N2/vacuum anneals.
