摘要
Blanket HfO2 layers, deposited with 2 to 40 ALD cycles, were measured using VUV-SR. The measured HfO2 thickness was compared to both XRR and process conditions. A linear correlation coefficient, R-2, of 0.9977 to the number of ALD HfO2 cycles demonstrated sensitivity for the thickness range studied, 1.5 to 37 angstrom, while the mean repeatability for thickness measurements (1-sigma) was 0.05 angstrom.
