Jc. Hsieh et al., THE ANOMALOUS THRESHOLD VOLTAGE SHIFT OF N-MOSFET AND P-MOSFET UNDER FLOW AND REFLOW OF BPSG FILM WITH RTA AND OR FURNACE/, I.E.E.E. transactions on electron devices, 41(3), 1994, pp. 458-460
Different post oxide annealing technologies, i.e., furnace and/or RTA
were done in Borophosphosilicate glass (BPSG) films flow and reflow. I
t is found that the threshold voltage shift is apparent in P-MOSFET bu
t small in N-MOSFET for device with RTA reflow. Base on the charge pum
ping measurement, the donor-type interface states generated by RTA ref
low process are supposed to play a major role in this shift. We explai
n the mechanism of RTA induced donor-like interface states in detail.
