Characterization of Gd[sub 2]O[sub 3] Films Deposited on Si(100) by Electron-Beam Evaporation
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Gadolinium oxide films were deposited on Si(100) substrates from a rod-fed electron beam evaporator using a pressed-powder target. Films 25 nm thick were shown to be stoichiometric by Rutherford backscattering and had a dielectric constant at 100 kHz of 16.0 ± 0.3. Transmission electron microscopy and X-ray reflectivity measurements showed that films 7-13 nm thick annealed in oxygen consisted of three distinct layers, an interfacial silicon dioxide layer next to the substrate, a second amorphous oxide layer containing silicon, gadolinium, and oxygen above this, and a polycrystalline layer on top. Annealing in oxygen reduced the leakage currents, increased the thickness of the silicon dioxide layer, and increased the grain size of the top layer. The characteristics of the leakage currents through the gadolinium oxide were consistent with a Frenkel-Poole conduction mechanism with a silicon- band offset of 1.8 V. Interfaces with excellent electrical properties, characteristic of good were obtained after annealing in oxygen. Annealing of the films in vacuum prior to oxygen annealing reduced the thickness of the interfacial silicon dioxide. © 2001 The Electrochemical Society. All rights reserved.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
