Abstract

The effect of ozone annealing on the charge trapping property of Ta2O5/Si3N4/p-Si capacitors was examined by measuring high-frequency capacitance-voltage and thermally stimulated current characteristics. The results suggest that two types of electron traps exist in the Ta2O5 layer and that the ozone annealing efficiently eliminates them.
