Abstract(in English) Recently, high-k dielectrics for gate insulator gather much attention for next generation ULSI, and are frequently prepared by MOCVD. However, MOCVD has disadvantage of including carbon contamination in the deposited film. So, in order to enhance the decomposition of source material, VUV (vacuum ultra violet) light is used for enhancement of chemical reaction during deposition of HfO_2 thin film in the case of MOCVD process using HTB (Hf(O-t-C_4H_9)_4) and H_2O. The absorption spectra of HTB is calculated by molecular orbital calculation method. As a result, the absorption band exists in VUV region (around 150nm), and so HfO_2 thin films were deposited under the irradiation with VUV light of D_2 lamp. These prepared samples are measured by FT-IR to estimate the concentration of carbon. It shows that C-H peak drastically decreases. Moreover, C-V, J-V and DLTS characteristics shows capacitance is increased by irradiation with VUV light. RTA (rapid thermal annealing) was performed as a post-annealing. This result shows that capacitance is much increased by RTA in the case of photo-assisted CVD by irradiation with VUV light. AFM observation results shows that very smooth surface is obtained.
