Treatments to enhance material structures

A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes pre-cleaning a surface of a substrate, forming an interfacial layer on the pre-cleaned surface of the substrate, depositing a high-K dielectric layer on the interfacial layer, performing a plasma nitridation process to insert nitrogen atoms in t...

Zusammenfassung:A method of forming a semiconductor structure includes pre-cleaning a surface of a substrate, forming an interfacial layer on the pre-cleaned surface of the substrate, depositing a high-K dielectric layer on the interfacial layer, performing a plasma nitridation process to insert nitrogen atoms in the deposited high-K dielectric layer, and performing a post-nitridation anneal process to passivate chemical bonds in the plasma nitridated high-K dielectric layer.
