SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICE COMPRISING A SUPERLATTICE DIELECTRIC INTERFACE LAYER

摘要

A semiconductor device may include a semiconductor substrate and at least one active device adjacent the semiconductor substrate. The at least one active device may include an electrode layer, a high-K dielectric layer underlying the electrode layer and in contact therewith, and a superlattice underlying the high-K dielectric layer opposite the electrode layer and in contact with the high-K dielectric layer. The superlattice may include a plurality of stacked groups of layers. Each group of layers of the superlattice may include a plurality of stacked base semiconductor monolayers defining a base semiconductor portion and at least one non-semiconductor monolayer constrained within a crystal lattice of adjacent base semiconductor portions.
