MONOS(metal-oxide-nitride-oxide-semicondutor) EEPROM에 응용하기 위한 얇은 ONO 유전층의 막 특성을 AES, SIMS, TEM 및 AFM을 이용하여 조사하였다. 터널링 산화막, 질화막, 블로킹 산화막의 두께를 각각 달리하여 ONO 박막을 제작하였다. 터널링 산화막 위에 LPCVD방법으로 질화막을 증착하는 동안 얇은 터널링 산화막이 질화되었으며, 질화막 위에 블로킹 산화막을 형성할 때, 산소가 질화막 표면을 산화시킬 뿐만 아니라 질화막을 지나 확산되었다. ONO 박막은 $SiO_2$(블로킹 산화막)/O-rich SiOxNy(계면)/N-rich iOxNy(질화막)/O-rich SiOxNy(터널링 산화막)으로 이루어졌다. SiON상은 주로 터널링 산화막과 질화막, 질화막과 블로킹 산화막 계면에 분포하였으며, $Si_2NO$상은 각 계면의 질화막 쪽과 터널링 산화막 내에 분포하였다.

Film characteristics of thin ONO dielectric layers for MONOS(metal-oxide-nitride-oxide-semiconductor) EEPROM was investigated by TEM, AES and AFM. Seocnd derivative spectra of Auger Si LVV overlapping peak provide useful information fot chemical state analysis of superthin film. The ONO film with dimension of tunnel oxide 23$\AA$, nitride 33$\AA$, and blocking oxide 40$\AA$ was fabricated. During deposition of the LPCVD nitride film on tunnel oxide, this thin oxide was nitrized. When the blocking oxide was deposited on the nitride film, the oxygen not only oxidized the nitride surface, but diffused through the nitride. The results of ONO film analysis exhibits that it is made up of $SiO_2$ (blocking oxide)/O-rich SiON(interface)/N-rich SiON(nitride)/ O-rich SiON(tunnel oxide)

본 연구에서는 MONOS 플래시 메모리의 blocking oxide/trapping nitride, trapping nitride/tunneling oxide 계면 트랩을 구하기 위해 C-V 방법을 도입하였고, stoichiometric 조건을 만족하는 nitride와 silicon rich nitride를 trapping layer로 갖는 MONOS capacitor를 제작하여 각각의 interface trap 특성을 비교분석하였다. 보고에 따르면 silicon rich nitride는 stoichiometric nitride에 비해 다수의 shallow trap이 존재한다고 보고되고 있는데, 본 연구를 통해 이의 정량화가 가능함을 보였다.

Film characteristics of thin ONO dielectric layers for MONOS(metal-oxide-nitride-oxide-semiconductor) EEPRM was investigated by AES and AFM. Second derivative spectra of AES Si LVV overlapping peak provided useful information for chemical state analysis of superthin film. The ONO films with dimension of tunneling oxide 24${\AA}$, nitride 33${\AA}$, and blocking oxide 40${\AA}$ were fabricated. During deposition of the LPCVD nitride films on tunneling oxide, this thin oxide was nitrized. When the blocking oxide were deposited on the nitride film, the oxygen not only oxidized the nitride surface, but diffused through the nitride. The results of ONO film analysis exhibits that it is made up of SiO$_2$(blocking oxide)/O-rich SiON(interface/N-rich SiON(nitride)/-rich SiON(interface)/N-rich SiON(nitride)/O-rich SiON(tunneling oxide).

When the size of the device is decreased, the hot carrier degradation presents a severe problem for long-term device reliability. In this paper we fabricated & tested the 0.26${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ NMOSFET with wet gate oxide and nitride oxide gate to compare that the characteristics of hot carrier effect, charge to breakdown, transistor Id_Vg curve and charge trapping using the Hp4145 device tester As a result we find that the characteristics of nitride oxide gate device better than wet gate oxide device, especially a hot carrier lifetime(nitride oxide gate device satisfied 30years, but the lifetime of wet gate oxide was only 0.1year), variation of Vg, charge to breakdown and charge trapping etc.

The multi-dielectric layer SiOz/Si3N4/SiO2(ONO) is used to scale down the memory device. In this paper, the change of composition in ONO layer due to the process condition and the conduction mechanism are observed. The composition of the oxide film grown through the oxidation of nitride film is analyzed using auger electron spectroscopy(AES). AES results show that oxygen concentration increases at the interface between oxide and nitride layers as the thickness -of the top oxide layer increases. Results of I-V measurement show that the insulating properties improve as the thickness of the top oxide layer increases. But when the thickness of the nitride layer decreases below 63.angs, insulating peoperties of film 28.angs. of top oxide and film 35.angs. turn over showing that insulating property of film 28.angs. of top oxide is better than that of film 35.angs. of top oxide. This phenomenon of turn over is thought as the result of generation of surface state due to oxygen flow into nitride during oxidation process. As the thickness of the top oxide and nitride increases, the electrical breakdown field increases, but when the thickness of top oxide reaches 35.angs, the same phenomenon of turn over occurs. Optimum film thickness for scaled multi-layer dielectric of memory device SONOS is estimated to be 63.angs. of nitride layer and 28.angs. of top oxide layer. In this case, maximum electrical breakdown field and leakage current are 18.5[MV/cm] and $8{\times}{10^-12}$[A], respectively.

This paper is analyzed the charge trapping and electrical properties of 0(Oxide), NO(Nitrided oxide) and ONO(Reoxidized nitrided oxide) as dielectric films in MIS structures. We have processed bottom oxide and top oxide by the thermal method, and nitride(Si$_{3}N_{4}$) by the LPCVD(Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition) method on P-type(100) Silicon wafer. We have studied the charge trapping properties of the dielectrics by using a computer controlled DLTS system. All of the dielectric films are shown peak nearly at 300K. Those are bulk traps. Many trap densities which is detected in NO films, but traps. Many trap densities which is detected in NO films. Varing the nitride thickness, the trap densities of thinner nitride is decreased than the thicker nitride. Finally we have found that trap densities of ONO films is affected by nitride thickness.

The double nitride layer Metal Nitride Oxide Semiconductor(MNOS) structures were fabricated by variating both gas ratio and nitride thickness, and by duplicating nitride deposited and one nitride layer MNOS structure to improve nonvolatile memory characteristics of MNOS structures by Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition(LPCVD) method. The nonvolatile memory characteristics of write-in, erase, memory retention and degradation of Bias Temperature Stress(BTS) were investigated by the homemade automatic .DELTA. $V_{FB}$ measuring system. In the trap density double nitride layer structures were higher by 0.85*10$^{16}$ $m^{-2}$ than one nitride layer structure, and the AVFB with oxide field was linearly increased. However, one nitride layer structure was linearly increased and saturated above 9.07*10$^{8}$ V/m in oxide field. In the erase behavior, the hole injection from silicon instead of the trapped electron emission was observed, and also it was highly dependent upon the pulse amplitude and the pulse width. In the memory retentivity, double nitrite layer structures were superior to one nitride layer structure, and the decay rate of the trapped electron with increasing temperature was low. At increasing the number on BTS, the variance of AVFB of the double nitride layer structures was smaller than that of one nitride layer structure, and the trapped electron retention rate was high. In this paper, the double nitride layer structures were turned out to be useful in improving the nonvolatile memory characteristics.
