Problems solved by technology

However, due to the uneven force during grinding, the actual prepared SCM cross-section samples are as follows: Figure 1c , it can be seen that the surface after grinding is curved, when the target address area 101 is relatively close to the sample surface (such as Figure 1c situation), the traditional sample preparation method will destroy the scanning area, so that the capacitance information of the address cannot be obtained. At present, there is no better way to prepare a cross-sectional SCM sample with the scanning area close to the sample surface

Abstract

The invention provides a preparation method for a sample for a scanning capacitance microscope. The method is characterized by comprising the following steps: supplying a target address area, whereinthe target address area is arranged as any structure which is scanned by a scanning capacitance microscope, the target address area is embedded in a first oxide and a silicon slice is arranged under the first oxide; depositing the second oxide on the first oxide; adhering one layer or multiple layers of glass sheets to the second oxide, thereby acquiring a to-be-milled sample; milling the to-be-milled sample, thereby acquiring the sample for the scanning capacitance microscope. According to the invention, the oxide layer is deposited on a present to-be-milled SCM section sample and the glass sheet layer is adhered, so that the overall thickness of the to-be-milled SCM section sample is increased and the target address area is not damaged by the curved section phenomenon caused by uneven force application in the milling process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a sample and a sample prepared by the method, in particular to a method for preparing a sample for a scanning capacitance microscope and a sample prepared by the method. Background technique [0002] Since the invention of the atomic force microscope (SAFM), it has been widely used in the scientific fields of physics, chemistry, biology and materials, and the derived scanning capacitance microscope (SCM) has also become a very important method for the development, manufacture and inspection of semiconductor devices. And a necessary means, especially for the inspection of the ion implantation process of semiconductor devices, the scanning capacitance microscope is an indispensable inspection means. [0003] The currently widely used SCM is to apply a low-frequency AC electric field between the conductive AFM tip and the semiconductor sample under the AFM contact mode. The free carriers in the sample are pe...
