Compared with the thermal oxide grown without the scanning-frequency anodization (SF ANO) treatment, the gate leakage current density ( ) of SF ANO sample is significantly reduced without increasing the thickness of gate oxide. In addition, it could be observed that the interface trap density ( it) is reduced with tighter distribution. It is suggested that the bulk traps and interface traps in thermally grown oxide can be repaired during the SF ANO process.application/pdf136932 bytesapplication/pdfzh-TWMetal–oxide–semiconductor (MOS)scanning frequency anodization (SF ANO)ultrathin gate oxideQuality Improvement of Ultrathin Gate Oxide by Using Thermal Growth Followed by SF ANO Techniquejournal articlehttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/200611150121591/1/4694.pdf
