Low-Frequency Noise in High-k LaLuO3/TiN MOSFETs
نویسندگان
چکیده
Low-frequency noise (LFN) characterization of high-k LaLuO3/TiN nMOS transistors is presented. The experimental results including the noise spectrum and normalized power noise density and mobility are reported. The noise results were successfully modeled to the correlated number and mobility fluctuation noise equation. High-k dielectric devices show lower mobility and roughly one to two orders of magnitude higher low-frequency noise which is comparable to the hafnium based oxide layers. The implementation of higher-k LaLuO3 seems to be a suitable candidate to the tradeoff between equivalent oxide thickness scaling and low frequency noise.

Measurement of the Low Frequency Noise of MOSFETs Under Large Signal RF Excitation
A measurement technique [1] is presented that allows measurement of MOSFET low frequency (LF) noise under large signal RF (Radio Frequency) excitation. Measurements indicate that MOSFETS exhibit a reduction in LF noise when they are cycled from inversion to accummulation and that this reduction does not depend on the frequency of excitation for excitation frequencies of up to 3 GHz. The measure...

In this paper, an ultra-low-noise amplifier with frequency band switching capability is designed, simulated and fabricated. The two frequency ranges of this amplifier consist of the 2.4 to 2.5 GHz and 3.1 GHz to 3.15 GHz frequency bands. The designed amplifier has a noise figure of less than 1dB, a minimum gain of 23 dB and a VSWR of less than 2 in the whole frequency band. The design process s...

The low-frequency LF noise performance of nand p-channel metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors MOSFETs with different Hf-based gate oxides, deposited by metallorganic chemical vapor deposition MOCVD on the same interfacial oxide layer and using polysilicon poly-Si as a gate material has been investigated. Independent of the gate oxide, the LF noise spectra of nand p-MOSFETs are pre...
متن کاملGate electrode effects on low-frequency (1/f) noise in p-MOSFETs with high-j dielectrics
The defects related to the gate–dielectric in high-j-MOSFETs are studied using the 1/f noise technique. Three different types of gate electrodes were used for this purpose – poly-Si, metal (TiN/TaN) and fully Ni Silicided (FUSI) electrodes with Hf-based oxides as the gate dielectric layer. All the three types of devices show a specific behavior near the gate electrode–dielectric interface when ...
