摘要
We studied the thermal stability of HfO2 on an InP structure when an Al2O3 interface passivation layer (PL) was introduced. In contrast to the thick (similar to 4 nm) Al2O3-PL, an almost complete disappearance of the thin (similar to 1 nm) Al2O3-PL was observed after a post-deposition anneal at 600 degrees C. Based on various chemical and electrical analyses, this was attributed to the intermixing of the thin Al2O3-PL with HfO2, which might have been accompanied by the out-diffusion of a substantial amount of substrate elements.
