Conductance method
• Interface states induce an additional capacitance and loss contribution in the MOS structure, represented by Cit and Rit in parallel with the M O S depletion capacitance. • The capacitance and resistance of the interface traps will be measured only if the measurement frequency is equal to the characteristic trap frequency at the Fermi Ef level position. eVG f = 1 kHz α Dit Cd Cox Rs Cit Rit • In the example case, at Vg=1V, the Fermi level at the semiconductor surface passes through the trap level with a characteristic frequency of 1 kHz. © IMEC 2010 / CONFIDENTIAL G. Brammertz, PT/LDD 9
10.
Conductance method: pitfalls* 1.
Depending on the size of the bandgap of the material, only small portions of the bandgap can be measured with the conductance method. Performing measurements at lower and higher temperatures might help for characterizing larger parts of the bandgap (Beware of weak inversion effects!). 2. The amplitude of the measured interface state conductance is limited by the oxide capacitance, such that the largest Dit that can be extracted is of the order of Cox/q. Dit values that approach this value will be strongly leveled off. *K. Martens et al., TED 55 (2), 547, 2008 © IMEC 2010 / CONFIDENTIAL G. Brammertz, PT/LDD 10
11.
Conductance method: pitfalls* 3.
Weak inversion responses, due to frequencies shown interactions of minority carriers with 1kHz → 1MHz interface states, do behave similarly to 300K majority carrier interface state responses. This can lead to overestimation of the Dit, if one applies equations that only take majority carriers into account. 0.7 Capacitance (µF/cm ) 2 4. Flatband voltage determination for 0.6 100 Hz energy-voltage relationship extraction can 0.5 be very problematic if large frequency 0.4 dependent flatband voltage shift is present. 1 MHz 0.3 0.2 -3 -2 -1 0 1 2 3 Gate voltage (V) *K.

Terman method (high
frequency CV) Comparison of high frequency CV curve to dψ −1 C it (ψ s ) = C ox s − 1 − C s (ψ s ) theoretical CV curve without interface states: dVg High frequency CV-curve meaning in this case: 1. Interface states do not respond to the measurement frequency and do not add any capacitance. Characteristic trap frequency (Hz) 10 10 In0.53Ga0.47As • If there is a large density of fast interface states at the band edges or 10 8 even inside the conduction band of III-V semiconductors, this 6 10 4 10 condition for application of the method is not verified. 10 2 • f.ex. in the InGaAs case there is typically a large density of very fast Dit close 10 0 to the valence band as well as inside the conduction band. 10 -2 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 EV Energy in bandgap (eV) EC 2. Interface states do respond to the bias sweep, which leads to stretch out of the CV-curve. Characteristic trap frequency (Hz) 10 • If there is a large density of very slow interface states inside the III-V 10 8 GaAs 10 semiconductor bandgap, this condition for application of the method 10 6 is not verified. 10 4 2 10 • f.ex. in the GaAs case there is typically a large density of very slow Dit close to 10 0 mid-gap, which does not respond to the bias sweep. 10 -2 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1 1.2 1.4 Energy in bandgap (eV) For pretty much all III-V/oxide interfaces, at least one of the conditions is not verified, such that this method will in most cases lead to errors in the derived Dit values. © IMEC 2010 / CONFIDENTIAL G.

13.
Berglund method (low
frequency CV) Comparison of low frequency CV curve to 1 1 −1 C it = − − Cs theoretical CV curve without interface states: C LF C ox Low frequency CV-curve meaning in this case: 1. Interface states fully respond to the measurement frequency and add capacitance to the CV. 2. Interface states do respond to the bias sweep, which leads to stretch out of the CV-curve. • If there is a large density of very slow interface states inside the III-V Characteristic trap frequency (Hz) 10 10 8 GaAs semiconductor bandgap, this condition for application of the method 10 6 10 is not verified. 10 4 • f.ex. in the GaAs case there is typically a large density of very slow Dit close to 10 2 mid-gap, which does not respond to the bias sweep, unless very slow sweep is 10 0 -2 10 used. 0 0.2 0.4 0.6 0.8 1 1.2 1.4 Energy in bandgap (eV) Due to low conduction band density of states the theoretical Energy-Voltage curves are more complicated than in the Si case: • Not a limitation, just a complication that can be addressed by using the correct theoretical model including Fermi-Dirac statistics for carrier concentrations. For low bandgap materials (In0.53Ga0.47As, InAs, InSb,...) these conditions are typically verified, BUT: slow oxide traps can also introduce stretchout, which could falsify the results. © IMEC 2010 / CONFIDENTIAL G.

method Derivation of Dit from both high and low 1 −1 1 1 1 −1 C it = − − C − C frequency CV curves. C LF C ox HF ox High and low frequency CV-curves need to verify the conditions of the Terman and Berglund method respectively, which makes this method very restrictive.
