Abstract
In this experiment, we found that the barrier height is 2.0 eV for tunneling electron injecting from Al/Si3N4 and 1.5 eV for hole injecting from Au/Si3N4 interface. The last value is more precise than those obtained from photoemission measurement. A more precise energy band diagram for MNOS structure is then determined. Numerical simulation using MINDO/3 was also performed and results show that the Si-Si bond in Si3N4 can traps both electrons and holes.
