Application of interference methods for determination of curvature radius in metal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS) structures
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper deals with the measurement of the radius of curvature of silicon wafer surface. The aim of these measurements was to determine stresses generated during oxidation of silicon wafers. A greater molar volume of SiO2 layer in relation to the substrate material causes changes in the shape of oxidized surface, which results in stresses in both silicon dioxide layer and silicon. These changes are detected by Fizeau interferometer. In order to find the local value of curvature radii, deformations of the wafers under investigation approximated by corresponding interpolation formulas have been determined.

Bit swapping linear feedback shift register (BS-LFSR) is employed in a conventional linear feedback shirt register (LFSR) to reduce its power dissipation and enhance its performance. In this paper, an enhanced BS-LFSR for low power application is proposed. To achieve low power dissipation, the proposed BS-LFSR introduced the stacking technique to reduce leakage current. In addition, three diffe...
متن کاملTunneling Induced Electroluminescence from Metal-Oxide- Semiconductor Structure on Silicon
Silicon is the most important semiconductor material for electronics industry. However, its indirect bandgap makes it hardly emit light, so its applications in optoelectromcs are limited. Many efforts had been devoted to converting silicon to light-emitting materials, including porous silicon-based devices, nanociystalline Si, and so on. In this work, we report electroluminescence on silicon wi...
