摘要: Fabrication of GaAs metal-oxide-semiconductor capacitors (MOSCAPs) with an unpinned interface is reported. The MOSCAP structure consists a few monolayers germanium grown in molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) system order to terminate MBE-grown silicon-doped (100) layer. An ex situ HfO2 high-κ dielectric equivalent oxide thickness 12A was deposited by using dc magnetron sputtering system. A midgap state density (Dit) 5×1011eV−1cm−2 measured the high-frequency conductance technique. rapid thermal annealing study performed examine integrity gate stack at different temperatures. In addition, forming gas anneal 400°C appears significantly reduce Dit revealed probing frequency dispersion behavior MOSCAPs.
