We investigated formation of Si nanocrystals in SiOx (1.0 < x < 1.9) films induced by millisecond annealing using thermal plasma jet (TPJ). After TPJ annealing, photoluminescence (PL) at room temperature was remarkably increased, and the maximum intensity was observed from x = 1.7 sample. The PL peak at ~950 nm is suggested ~5 nm sized Si nanocrystals. Then Si nanocrystal floating gate MOS capacitors were formed on p-Si (100) wafers by TPJ annealing of SiO2/SiOx/SiO2/Si(100) stacked structure. The MOS capacitors showed clear hysteresis of 6.8 V in capacitance-voltage (CV) characteristics after TPJ annealing. Si nanocrystals and/or the Si nanocrystal/SiO2 interfaces work as the charging nodes for electrons and holes. TPJ annealing of SiO2/SiOx/SiO2 stack has a potential to realize non-volatile TFT memories on low heat resistant substrates. |
