ABSTRACTTa2O5 films suitable for DRAM use have been deposited on silicon, polysilicon, and SiO2 by LP-CVD from Ta (OC2H5)5 and O2. Uniformity, reproducibility, and conformality are excellent. Annealed films are polycrystalline, and their surfaces are characterized by 2 nm high, 1 mgr;m diameter nucleation centers surrounded by circular crystallization fronts. The electrical properties of annealed films are dominated by a SiO2-rich layer which forms between the Ta2O5 and the silicon or polysilicon substrate.
