Abstract
This work deals with the electrical characteristics and physical properties of novel dielectric systems based on silicon nanocrystals embedded in SiO2 matrices. In particular, the transport phenomena of 10 nm thick SiO2 capacitors with an embedded thin layer (5 nm) of LPCVD Si nanocrystals, located at different tunneling distances from the oxide–substrate interface, are studied. An original model based on an elastic tunneling phenomenon, which allows an efficient evaluation of the main structural characteristics of Si dots, is proposed.
