Abstract

This work investigates the impact of hydrogen/deuterium implantation at the Si/SiO 2 interface when a thin oxide is grown on implanted silicon substrate. Implantation energy and implantation dose significantly influence the interface passivation. Observed interface states at the Si/SiO 2 interface suggests an isotope effect where deuterium implanted devices yielded better interface results compared to that of hydrogen implanted devices. Deuterium implanted at 20keV with a dose of Ix 10 14 atoms/cm 2 seems to be effectively passivating the interface. Transient enhanced diffusion of implanted hydrogen and deuterium is affected by the implantation damage.
