ABSTRACT:
A metal layer of a metal-insulator-semiconductor type semiconductor device, e.g., a metal electrode on an oxide layer covering a semiconductor substrate of an MOS diode or an MOS FET, contains at least one cation-trapping element. The semiconductor substrate with the metal layer and the oxide layer is heated at an elevated temperature to diffuse some of the ions responsible for the cation-trapping element out of the metal layer and into the upper part of the oxide layer. The metal and oxide layers promote the surface passivation of the semiconductor device.
