Abstract

See full text

An electronic device is formed by depositing a thin film of high dielectric constant material on a silicon substrate, exposing the structure to plasma, and then forming the top electrode. The plasma substantially reduces the density of charge traps at the dielectric/silicon interface. Advantageously, the dielectric film is passivated with a nitrogen-containing material before forming the top electrode to prevent interdiffusion between the electrode and the dielectric.
