Embodiment Construction

[0041] The present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0042] By using the fin structure sample processing technology in the cross-cut fin field effect transistor of the present invention, the fin structure of the fin field effect transistor can be prepared for three-dimensional atom probe tip samples. This method is different from the traditional method of vertically placing the entire fin structure on a needle tip, but adopts a segmented method, cross-cutting the fin structure in the semiconductor device, and placing the fin structure in the semiconductor device perpendicular to the growth direction. Use the focused ion beam to cut into a small section, that is, only a small section of the fin structure is included in each 3D atom probe tip sample, and then cut multiple needle tips, and after collecting the 3D atom probe data for all the tip, that is Can be combined to form a complete fin structure.

Abstract

The invention belongs to the field of material preparation, and particularly provides a preparation method of a semiconductor probe tip sample for a detection of a three-dimensional atom probe. The method is different from the traditional method for vertically placing an entire fin structure on a probe tip, and comprises the following steps: crosscutting the fin structure in a semiconductor deviceby adopting a segment method; placing the fin structure in the semiconductor device perpendicularly to a growth direction; cutting into small segments by using a focused ion beam, that is, each probetip sample for the three-dimensional atom probe only comprises a small segment of the fin structure; cutting a plurality of probe tips; and performing collecting three-dimensional atom probe data onall probe tip samples to combine into a complete fin structure. According to the preparation method of the semiconductor probe tip sample for the detection of the three-dimensional atom probe, a datadistortion phenomenon on a semiconductor probe tip sample can be effectively avoided when detecting the three-dimensional atom probe, and more accurate data can be provided for analyzing a result of the three-dimensional atom probe.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of micro-nano-scale material sample preparation, and in particular relates to a method for preparing a semiconductor needle tip sample for three-dimensional atom probe detection by using a focused ion beam. Background technique [0002] The 3D atom probe is a measurement and analysis method with atomic-level spatial resolution. Based on the principle of "field evaporation", the 3D atom probe applies a strong voltage pulse or laser pulse to the sample, turning its surface atoms into ions one by one, removes and collects them, and finally obtains a complete needle tip sample through software reconstruction. The three-dimensional atom probe has a significant effect on the analysis of element segregation, dislocation composition, precipitated phase composition and interface composition in materials. [0003] With the development of the semiconductor industry, the electronic industry has continuously increased the require...
