摘要
In this work, surface passivation of thermal atomic layer deposited (ALD) Al2O3 films on Si has been investigated. A quantitative analysis shows that field-effect passivation based on surface fixed charge combined with chemical passivation is assumed to contribute to the passivation performance and that a low defect density is critical to passivation quality. The surface fixed negative charge, which is exponentially modulated from similar to 0 cm(-2) to -2x10(12) cm(-2) by annealing, is proposed to have arisen from the reconstruction of the interfacial SiO (x) layer.
