Silicon oxynitride is one of the most researched silicon-based dielectric currently used in IC fabrication. Properties of the oxynitride films can be modified to achieve desirable functions by specific engineering of thickness and stoichiometry. In the case of gate stacks, considerable progress has been made in optimising the properties of oxynitride dielectrics in order to reduce boron penetration and dielectric leakage with respect to pure SiO2, allowing sub-2 nm dielectrics. In this study ultra low energy (ULE) secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) has been used to assess a range of ultra thin (<1.5 nm) silicon oxynitride films containing varied amounts of nitrogen (up to 18 at.%) and the results have been compared with shallow angle surface X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Despite the limited number of atomic layers available for probing, this investigation indicates that both techniques are capable of extracting useful and reliable chemical and physical information from these oxynitride films. Critical parameters such as stoichiometry and film thickness have been evaluated, whilst consistency between the two techniques is also addressed.

A microscopic model is presented to describe the probability of charge transfer for the desorption of ions from surfaces. Results from this model study provide a theoretical basis for understanding the ionization process in SIMS and ESD experiments. Predictions of the model that have a direct bearing on the interpretation of experimental data are emphasized in this study. We examine the effect of angle of ejection, both polar and azimuthal, and the nonconstant velocity during desorption due to a surface binding energy on the ionization probability.

Some of the models that have been proposed to account for ion formation during sputtering are reviewed. Particular attention is paid to models describing polyatomic ion formation. Aspects of these models that are relevant to ion formation from molecular materials are discussed. Reports describing the sputtering of polymeric materials are reviewed, and the bearing of recent tandem studies on attempts to formulate a model for ion formation from polymer materials is discussed. Some of the characteristics that a suitable model would possess are identified from the experimental
