Fundamental Aspects of Silicon Oxidation /

This book presents fundamental experimental and theoretical developments relating to silicon oxidation for ultra-thin gate oxide formation. Starting with elementary processes taking place during wet chemical cleans prior to oxidation, the focus is then placed on the incorporation of oxygen into the...
