The authors have developed a novel high-temperature stable HfSix gate for high-kappa HfSiON gate dielectric. After a 1000 degrees C RTA, the HfSix/HfSiON devices showed an effective work function of 4.27 eV and a peak electron mobility of 216 cm(2)/V (.) s at 1.6-nm equivalent oxide thickness, with additional merit of a process compatible with current very large scale integration fabrication lines.

We report novel 1000 degrees C-stable [Ir3Si-TaN]/HfLaON CMOS for the first time, where the self-aligned and gate-first process are full compatible to current VLSI. Good phi(m.eff) of 5.08 and 4.24 eV, low V, of -0.10 and 0.18 V, high mobility of 84 and 217 cm(2)/Vs at 1.6 nm EOT, and small 850 degrees C BTI < 20 mV (10 MV/cm for 1 hr) are measured.

We report a novel 1000 degrees C stable HfLaON p-MOSFET with Ir3Si gate. Low leakage current of 1.8 x 10(-5) A/cm(2) at 1 V above flat-band voltage, good effective work function of 5.08 eV, and high mobility of 84 cm(2)/V center dot s are simultaneously obtained at 1.6 nm equivalent oxide thickness. This gate-first p-MOSFET process with self-aligned ion implant and 1000 degrees C rapid thermal annealing is fully compatible to current very large scale integration fabrication lines.
High-temperature stable IrxSi gates with high work function on HfSiON p-MOSFETs

A novel 1000 degrees C-stable IrxSi gate on HfSiON is shown for the first time with full process compatibility to current very-large-scale-integration fabrication lines and proper effective work function of 4.95 eV at 1.6-nm equivalent-oxide thickness. In addition, small threshold voltages and good hole mobilities are measured in IrxSi/HfSiON transistors. The 1000 degrees C thermal stability above pure metal (900 degrees C only) is due to the inserted 5-nm amorphous Si, which also gives less Fermi-level pinning by the accumulated metallic full silicidation at the interface.
