Abstract: | Control of the plasma-CVD SiO2/InAlN interface by N2O plasma oxidation of the InAlN surface was studied. The interface was characterized by both X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and capacitance-voltage measurement of metal-insulator-semiconductor (MIS) diodes. An excessively long duration of oxidation led to the deterioration of the stoichiometry of the InAlN surface and plasma oxide, resulting in a high-density of interface states in the completed MIS diodes. Meanwhile, the surface-localized oxygen deficiency in the plasma oxide layer was observed by XPS. The intensity ratio of the oxygen-deficient component to the fully oxidized component in the O 1s spectrum decreased with increasing oxidation duration. Consequently, there was an optimum oxidation duration. The interface state density was reduced by almost one order in the case of plasma oxidation for an appropriate duration compared with the case of the direct deposition of SiO2 onto InAlN.
