Abstract

A study on requirements and challenges associated with high permittivity gate dielectrics for metal oxide semiconductor devices was presented. Issues related to processing, dielectric constant, capacitance, bandgap, tunnel current and reliability were discussed. The replacement of silicon dioxide in gates with dielectric materials of high permittivity was found to be difficult for integrated circuit manufacturing.
