摘要
The effect of the surface passivation with ex situ wet clean as well as insertion of an III-V in situ grown interlayer, on the HfO2/In0.52Al0.48As interface characteristics was investigated with capacitance/conductance measurements, and synchrotron radiation photoemission spectroscopy A very thin aluminum oxide passivation layer grown after In0.52Al0.48As surface clean improves the In0.52Al0.48As metal-oxide-semiconductor characteristics compared to native oxide covered interface, giving an interface state density (D-it) 3.8)x 10(12) cm(-2) eV(-1) at 0.31 eV from conduction band edge. Furthermore, insertion of a thin In0. 53Ga0.47As cap layer effectively prevented Al oxidation further improving electrical properties, such as frequency dispersion, hysteresis, (2.7)x 10(12) cm(-2) eV(-1)) and capacitive equivalent oxide thickness.
