Abstract
In this work, we present the results obtained on the characterization of si licon oxide thin films deposited by plasma enhanced chemical vapor depositi on (PECVD) using a mixture of tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS), oxygen and ar gon. The electrical characteristics of the implemented MOS capacitors, afte r the annealing process (600 degrees C), showed an increase in the break-do wn strength as well as the effective charge density.
