- Abstract
- We report the Schottky barrier height (SBH) at metal-insulator interfaces in Pt/ZrO2-Al2O3-ZrO2(ZAZ)/TiN dynamic random access memory capacitors by analyzing the photoconductivity yield and internal photoemission (IPE) yield using IPE spectroscopy. The SBH values at the Pt/ZAZ and ZAZ/TiN interfaces in the Pt/ZAZ/TiN stack were found to be 2.77 and 2.18 eV, respectively. The SBH difference between the top electrode/oxide and bottom electrode/oxide interfaces is related to the work function difference between Pt and TiN, and the subgap defect state features (density and energy) of the given dielectric.
