Multi-wafer 3C-SiC heteroepitaxial growth on Si(100) substrates

Epitaxial growth of semiconductor films in multiple-wafer mode is under vigorous development in order to improve yield output to meet the industry increasing demands. Here we report on results of the heteroepitaxial growth of multi-wafer 3C-SiC films on Si(100) substrates by employing a home-made horizontal hot wall low pressure chemical vapour deposition (HWLPCVD) system which was designed to be have a high-throughput, multi-wafer (3x2-inch) capacity. 3C-SiC film properties of the intra-wafer and the wafer-to-wafer including crystalline morphologies, structures and electronics are characterized systematically. The undoped and the moderate NH3 doped n-type 3C-SiC films with specular surface are grown in the HWLPCVD, thereafter uniformities of intra-wafer thickness and sheet resistance of the 3C-SiC films are obtained to be 6%similar to 7% and 6.7%similar to 8%, respectively, and within a run, the deviations of wafer-to-wafer thickness and sheet resistance are less than 1% and 0.8%, respectively.

Heteroepitaxial Growth and Heterojunction Characteristics of Voids-Free n-3C-SiC on p-Si(100)

Highly oriented voids-free 3C-SiC heteroepitaxial layers are grown on φ50mm Si (100) substrates by low pressure chemical vapor deposition (LPCVD). The initial stage of carbonization and the surface morphology of carbonization layers of Si(100) are studied using reflection high energy electron diffraction (RHEED) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). It is shown that the optimized carbonization temperature for the growth of voids-free 3S-SiC on Si (100) substrates is 1100 ℃. The electrical properties of SiC layers are characterized using Van der Pauw method. The I-V, C-V, and the temperature dependence of I-V characteristics in n-3C-SiC-p-Si heterojunctions with AuGeNi and Al electrical pads are investigated. It is shown that the maximum reverse breakdown voltage of the n-3C-SiC-p-Si heterojunction diodes reaches to 220V at room temperature. These results indicate that the SiC/Si heterojunction diode can be used to fabricate the wide bandgap emitter SiC/Si heterojunction bipolar transistors (HBT's).

Raman Investigatins of 3C-SiC Films Grown on Si (100) and Sapphire (0001) by LPCVD

The Raman measurements have been performed with the back-scattering geometry on the SiC films grown on Si(100) and sapphire (0001) by LPCVD. Typical TO and LO phonon peaks of 3C-SiC were observed for all the samples grown on Si and apphire substrates, indicating the epilayers are 3C-SiC polytype. Using a free-standing 3C-SiC film removed from Si(100) as a free-stress sample, the stresses of 3C-SiC on Si(100) and sapphire (0001) were estimated according to the shift of TO and LO phonons.

Improved Epitaxy of 3C-SiC Layers on Si(100) by New CVD/LPCVD System

Single crystalline 3C-SiC epitaxial layers are grown on φ50mm Si wafers by a new resistively heated CVD/LPCVD system, using SiH_4, C_2H_4 and H_2 as gas precursors. X-ray diffraction and Raman scattering measurements are used to investigate the crystallinity of the grown films. Electrical properties of the epitaxial 3C-SiC layers with thickness of 1 ～ 3μm are measured by Van der Pauw method. The improved Hall mobility reaches the highest value of 470cm~2/(V·s) at the carrier concentration of 7.7 * 10~(17)cm~(-3).

Effect of rapid thermal annealing on the Raman spectrum of Si0.33Ge0.67/Si (100) alloy

The effect of thermal annealing on the Raman spectrum of Si0.33Ge0.67 alloy grown on Si (100) by molecular beam epitaxy is investigated in the temperature range of 550-800 degrees C. For annealing below 700 degrees C, interdiffusion at the interface is negligible and the residual strain plays the dominant role in the Raman shift. The strain-shift coefficients for Si-Ge and Ge-Ge phonon modes are determined to be 915 +/- 215 cm(-1) and 732 +/- 117 cm(-1), respectively. For higher temperature annealing, interdiffusion is significant and strongly affects the Raman shift and the spectral shape.

Dielectric properties of Bi2Ti2O7 films grown on Si(100) substrate by APMOCVD

The growth of Bi2Ti2O7 films with (111) orientation on Si(100) substrate by atmospheric pressure metal-organic chemical vapor deposition(APMOCVD) technique at 480similar to550 degreesC is presented. The films were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis, atomic force microscopy and electron diffraction. The results show high quality Bi2Ti2O7 films with smooth shinning surface. The dielectric properties and C-V characterization of the films were studied. The dielectric constant (epsilon) and loss tangent (tgdelta) were found to be 180 and 0.01 respectively. The charge storage density was 31.9fC/mum(2). The resistivity is higher than 1x10(12) Omega. .cm under the applied voltage of 5V. The Bi2Ti2O7 films are suitable to be used as a new insulating gate material in dynamic random access memory (DRAM).

Strain-induced morphological evolution and preferential interdiffusion in SiGe epitaxial film on Si(100) during high-temperature annealing

Strain relaxation in initially flat SiGe film on Si(1 0 0) during rapid thermal annealing is studied. The surface roughens after high-temperature annealing, which has been attributed to the intrinsic strain in the epilayers. It is interesting to find that high-temperature annealing also results in roughened interface, indicating the occurrence of preferential interdiffusion. It is suggested that the roughening at the surface makes the intrinsic strain in the epilayer as well as the substrate unequally distributed, causing preferential interdiffusion at the SiGe/Si interface during high-temperature annealing.
