abstract = {Hafnium oxide films were deposited on Si(100) substrates
using pulsed metal-organic chemical vapor deposition (CVD)
and evaluated for high-K dielectric applications. Three
types of precursors were tested: two oxygenated ones, Hf
butoxide-dmae and Hf butoxide-mmp, and an oxygen-free one,
Hf diethyl-amide. Depositions were carried out in the
temperature range of 350-650 degrees C, yielding different
microstructures ranging from amorphous to crystalline,
monoclinic, films. The films were compared on the basis of
growth rate, phase development, density, interface
characteristics, and electrical properties. Some specific
features of the pulsed injection technique are considered.
For low deposition temperatures the growth rate for the
amide precursor was significantly higher than for the mixed
butoxide precursors. A thickness-dependent amorphous to
crystalline phase transition temperature was found for all
precursors. There is an increase of the film density along
with the deposition temperature from values as low as
5g/cm(3) at 350 degrees C to values close to the bulk value
of 9.7 g/cm(3) at 550 degrees C. Crystallization is observed
in the same temperature range for films of typically 10-20
nm thickness. However, annealing studies show that this
density increase is not simply related to the
crystallization of the films. Similar electrical properties
could be observed for all precursors and the dielectric
constant of the films reaches values similar to the best
values reported for bulk crystalline HfO2. (c) 2004 Elsevier
