In Situ Analysis of Oxygen Vacancies and Band Alignment in HfO2/TiN Structure for CMOS Applications

Abstract The density of oxygen vacancies characterization in high-k/metal gate is significant for semiconductor device fabrication. In this work, a new approach was demonstrated to detect the density of oxygen vacancies by in situ x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet photoelectron...
