We investigated in-situ the atomic layer deposition (ALD) of HfO2 onto SiO2 substrates with ultra high vacuum (UHV) non-contact atomic force microscope (NC-AFM). The ALD process was started after detailed analysis of the initial Si(001)/SiO2 substrate. The ALD cycles, made by using tetrakis-di-methyl-amido-Hf (TDMAHf) and water as precursors, were performed on the SiO2 substrate maintained at 230 C. We studied the relation between the film growth and the root mean square surface roughness, surface skewness, kurtosis, fractal dimension and correlation length. In the initial stages of the ALD process with our analysis of the surface height histograms we were capable of determination: HfO2 layer thickness, surface coverage and surface roughness of a substrate and deposited material. Observation of the surface height histograms evolution during deposition allowed us to verify conformal and effective ALD growth on SiO2 substrate. With this detailed analysis of the surface topography we confirmed the completion of the first HfO2 layer after four ALD cycles.
