△ [16p-E206-5] Improvement of device characteristic for Hf-based MONOS structure by Si(100) surface flattening
Keywords:surface flattening process, silicon, non-volatile memory
The effect of Si(100) surface flattening by annealing at 1050 °C in Ar/4%H2 ambient on device characteristics was investigated in previous report. In this study, the condition of annealing for surface flattening process was investigated. Furthermore, ONO structure was deposited on atomically flat Si(100) surface to investigate the effect of Si surface flattening process on electrical characteristics of Hf-based MONOS structure.
