Abstract :
We present the results of comprehensive investigations of the effects of ordering enhanced by magnetron microwave radiation (frequency of 2.45 GHz, irradiance of 1.5 W/cm2, and processing duration of 10 s) in Ta2O5-p-Si heterosystem and MIS structures with Ta2O5 insulator 16-24 nm thick. It was shown that using microwave treatment of investigated samples we can receive practically relaxed heterosystems whose parameters correlate with characteristics of MIS structures. In this case the Ta2O 5/p-Si interface becomes essentially ordered
