Abstract
We investigated Vth fluctuations due to random telegraph signal (RTS) on gate work function control in Hf-doped silicate gate stack compared with the conventional impurity doping. Complex RTS were recognized for both n- and p-MOSFET. The WFC does not appreciably affect Vth fluctuations for n-and p-MOSFET. However, dopant contributes to Vth fluctuation, especially for the p-MOSFET. We found it is caused by change in Vfb fluctuation due to increase of the trap density.
