摘要
Solution processed barium titanate (BTO) was used to fabricate an Al/BaTiO3/p-Si metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) structure, which was used as a gate insulator. Changes in the electrical characteristics of the film were investigated as a function of the film thickness and post deposition annealing conditions. Our results showed that a thickness of 5 layers and an annealing temperature of 650 degrees C produced the highest electrical performance. BaxTi1-xO3 was altered at x = 0.10, 0.30, 0.50, 0.70, 0.90, and 1.0 to investigate changes in the electrical properties as a function of composition. The highest dielectric constant of 87 was obtained for x = 0.10, while the leakage current density was suppressed as Ba content increased. The lowest leakage current density was 1.34x10(-10) A/cm(2), which was observed at x = 0.90. The leakage current was related to the resistivity of the film, the interface states, and grain densification. Space charge limited current (SCLC) was the dominant leakage mechanism in BTO films based on leakage current analysis. Although a Ba content of x = 0.90 had the highest trap density, the traps were mainly composed of Ti-vacancies, which acted as strong electron traps and affected the film resistivity. A secondary phase, Ba2TiO4, which was observed in cases of excess Ba, acted as a grain refiner and provided faster densification of the film during the thermal process. The absence of a secondary phase in BaO (x = 1.0) led to the formation of many interface states and degradation in the electrical properties. Overall, the insulator properties of BTO were improved when the composition ratio was x = 0.90.
