Abstract
Atomic Vapor Deposition (AVD) and Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) techniques were successfully applied for the depositions of perovskite type dielectrics, namely, Sr-Ta-O, Ti-Ta-O, Sr-Ti-O, Ba-Hf-O, Nb-Ta-O and Ce-Al-O. Thin films were investigated as alternative dielectrics for Metal-Insulator-Insulator (MIM) capacitors. Structural and electrical properties are investigated after depositing the metal oxides on 200 mm TiN/Si (100) substrates within the temperature range of 225-400 ºC. Electrical properties, investigated after sputtering Au top electrodes, revealed that the main characteristics are different for each dielectric. The highest dielectric constants were achieved for crystalline SrTiO3 (k=95), crystalline CeAlO3 (k = 60) and amorphous Ti-Ta-O (k = 50) films. However, Sr-Ta-O based MIM capacitors showed the lowest leakage current densities as well as the smallest capacitancevoltage linearity coefficients.
