In this contribution, negative charges and electronic traps related to the Si / Al 2 O 3 interface were measured and related to paramagnetic point defects and molecular vibrations. To this end, contactless capacitance voltage measurements, X-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), and infrared spectroscopy were carried out, and their results were compared. A change in the negative charge density and electron trap density at the Si / Al 2 O 3 interface was achieved by adding a thermally grown SiO 2 layer with varying thicknesses and conducting an additional temperature treatment. Using EPR, five paramagnetic moments were detected in Si / ( SiO 2 ) / Al 2 O 3 samples with g values of g 1 = 2.0081 ± 0.0002 , g 2 = 2.0054 ± 0.0002 , g 3 = 2.0003 ± 0.0002 , g 4 = 2.0026 ± 0.0002, and g 5 = 2.0029 ± 0.0002. Variation of the Al 2 O 3 layer thickness shows that paramagnetic species associated with g1, g2, and g3 are located at the Si / Al 2 O 3 interface, and those with g4 and g5 are located within the ...
