Abstract
Plasma-grown oxides on silicon with midgap interface state densities l ess than 10(10) cm(-2) eV(-1) have been obtained using low process tem peratures )<120 degrees C). Slow and fast interface state densities we re measured over a wide frequency range by two different techniques: t he quasi-static (CV) and the conductance (G(p)/w) methods. Careful att ention to system apparatus design, cleanliness and operation are thoug ht to be the main factors responsible for the low interface trap densi ties.
