  • Abstract
    In this paper, we report our approaches in realizing EOT of 0.5nm and below with rare earth La2O3 high-k gate dielectric. An EOT of 0.43nm was obtained from a TiN/W/La2O3(3nm)/n-Si capacitor by optimizing the thickness W layer. Our results show that a proper gate electrode is one of the most important factors for realizing EOT below 0.5nm.
