Abstract

Metal-silicon dioxide barrier energies have been determined for six metals, Ag, Al, Au, Cu, Mg and Ni, deposited on thermally oxidized silicon. Results obtained by two different measurement methods, the photoemission technique and the MOS capacitance-voltage technique, are in excellent agreement with one another. Values of the barrier energy ϕ_M range from 2.3 eV for Mg to 4.2 eV for Ag and are roughly proportional to the electronegativities of the metals. The siliconsilicon dioxide barrier energy (measured from the silicon valence band) has also been determined and was found to be 4.35 eV independent of silicon orientation or type.
