摘要
N-channel metal oxide semiconductor held effect transistors with Ta2O5 gate dielectric mere fabricated. The Ta2O5/silicon barrier height was calculated using both the lucky electron model acid the thermionic emission model. Based on the lucky electron model, a barrier height of 0.77 eV was extracted from the slope of the ln(I-g/I-d) versus ln(I-sub/I-d) plot using an impact ionization energy of 1.3 eV, Due to the low barrier height, the application of Ta2O5 gate dielectric transistors is limited to low supply voltage preferably less than 2.0 V.
