In the ALSB process, in situ Ar plasma generated by substrate biasing is layer-by-layer introduced into each cycle of atomic layer deposition. Energy delivery from the plasma toward the as-deposited layer boosts the migration of adatoms, leading to ∼10% increase of the film density, ∼3-order-of-magnitude reduction of Jg, and an increment of K being as large as 40.7 of a ZrO2 layer of ∼5 nm. The reliability enhancement upon the ALSB treatment is demonstrated by constant-voltage-stress (CVS) and the time-dependent-dielectric-breakdown (TDDB) tests, which confirm the suppression of stress-induced traps and a high electric field of 4.7 MV cm-1 projected for a 10 year lifetime. Significant improvements in the film density, Jg, K, and the reliability indicate that ALSB is a highly effective technique to modify the quality of ALD-deposited thin films, which can be widely used in a variety of fields including energy saving, green energy, nanoelectronics, and biomedical applications.
