The Characteristics of Ti-O Buffer Layered Ta/Ta₂O₅Capacitors on the Al₂O₃ substrate

Al₂O₃ 기판위에 형성된 Ti-O 완충층을 가진 Ta/Ta₂O₅커패시티의 특성

We investigated the electrical characterisitics of T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ (tantalum pentoxide) film and Ti-O/T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ film deposited on $Al_2$ $O_3$based substrate. Ta (tantalum) electrode and $Al_2$ $O_3$ substrate was used for the purpose of simplifying the manufacturing process in IPD's (integrated passive devices). Dielectric materials (T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ and Ti-O/T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ films) deposited on Ta/Ti/A $l_2$ $O_3$ were annealed at 700 $^{\circ}C$ for 60 sec. in vacuum. The XRD results showed that as-deposited T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ film possessed amorphous structure, which was transformed to crystallines by rapid thermal heat treatment. We compared the lnJ- $E^{{\frac}{1}{2}}$, C-V, C-F of both as-deposited and annealed dielectric thin films deposited on Ta bottom electrode. From this results, we concluded that the leakage current could be reduced by introducing Ti-O buffer layer and conduction mechanisms of T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ and Ti-O/T $a_2$ $O_{5}$ could be interpreted appropriately by Schottky emission effect.
