Abstract

The first material of silicon dioxide (SiO2) had been proposed as a chemical transducer element of pH sensitive membrane around the early of 1970s. In 1981 Matsuo et al. proposed Ta2O5 as pH sensing membrane [1]. Start from that moment, many materials have been wildly investigated, e.g. Al2O3, SnO2, WO3. The rare -earth oxide, Samarium oxide (Sm2O3), is an attractive material to substitute the previous high-k materials because of its high dielectric constant(15-30) and good chemical and thermal stability with Si material. In this paper, the electrical and physical characteristics of the high-k Sm2O3 polyoxides by RF sputtering system deposited on the polycrystalline silicon were studied. It can be seen that the high-k Sm2O3 polyoxides with post rapid thermal annealing (RTA) can show lower trapping rates and higher dielectric breakdown fields. Furthermore, the EGFET device with a high-k Sm2O3 sensing membrane deposited on polysilicon through reactive sputtering was proposed for high sensitive pH sensing.
