A semiconductor device has a diffusion barrier formed between a doped glass layer and surface structures formed on a substrate. The diffusion barrier includes alumina and optionally a nitride, and has a layer thickness satisfying the high aspect ratio of the gaps between the surface structures, while adequately preventing dopants in doped glass layer from diffusing out of the doped glass layer to the surface structures and the substrate. Further, heavy water can be used during the formation of the alumina so that deuterium may be accomplished near the interface of surface structures and the substrate to enhance the performance of the device.
