The band gap of HfZrO 4 gate oxide thin film is 5.40 ± 0.05 eV. The valence band offset (Δ E v ) and the conduction band offset (Δ E c ) are 2.50 ± 0.05 eV and 1.78 ± 0.05 eV, respectively. These values satisfy the minimum requirement for the hole and electron barrier heights of larger than 1 eV for device applications. We have demonstrated that the quantitative analysis of reflection electron energy loss spectroscopy spectra obtained from HfZrO 4 thin films provides us a straightforward way to determine the optical properties and the inelastic mean free path of ultrathin gate oxide materials.
