摘要: | 在本篇論文中,為了進一步微縮通道尺寸以及改善其形狀,我們改良了近日所開發的一種製造方法,利用氮化矽側壁硬式光罩(nitride-spacer hardmask)法來形成多晶矽奈米線。兩種方式分別被提出來解決殘留物清除及氮化矽側壁崩解的問題。本研究只採用I-line微影技術就製造出通道長82奈米與邊寬15奈米的奈米線矽-氧化矽-氮化矽-氧化矽-矽(SONOS)元件。由於具有較細的奈米線及閘極全圍繞結構,提供極高的閘極控制能力,元件特性也較先前成果為優,其次臨界擺幅可達72到80 mV/dec,讀/寫效率也相當不錯。此外,以此元件進行雜訊分析,多層級隨機電訊噪音(multilevel random telegraph noise)可被清晰量測與分析。 In this thesis, to further downscale the channel dimensions and improve the device performance, two nitride-spacer hardmask methods ameliorated from a previous fabrication method recently reported by our group have been developed to fabricate nanowire (NW) Si-SiO2-SiN-SiO2-Si (SONOS) devices. Although only I-line lithography was adopted, with the newly developed methods we can fabricate NWs SONOS devices with channel length down to 82 nm and edge width of 15 nm. As a result, the NW devices with GAA structure show better gate controllability as compared with the previous work. Better performance of steeper SS (around 72 to 80 mV/dec) and higher programming/erasing efficiency characteristics are demonstrated. Multilevel RTN characteristics are also explored with the fabricated devices. |
