Abstract

Analytical electron microscopy techniques are used to investigate elemental distributions across a high-k dielectric stack with a metal gate. Electron energy-loss spectroscopy results from a Si(100)/SiO2/HfO2/TiN/poly-Si gate stack prior to activation show evidence of interface reactions having occurred with the formation of an oxide layer at the TiN/poly- Si interface.
