For the first time, the characteristics of ultrathin (capacitance equivalent thickness = ${\sim}1.4$ nm) Hf-silicate gate dielectrics deposited by RF sputtering on tensile-strained Si0.9954C0.0046 layers are investigated. The formation of Hf-silicate film is confirmed by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The physical thickness of ${\sim}5.5$ nm is measured by high-resolution transmission electron microscopy and the effective dielectric constant of $\kappa$ ${\sim}15.5$ is calculated from the accumulation capacitance. The leakage current density of ${\sim}1\times 10^{-4}$ A/cm2 at $-2$ V is significantly decreased as compared with SiO2 for the same capacitance equivalent thickness.
