Abstract

The present invention provides a laser annealing device capable of reducing the man-hours for measuring surface resistance and measuring surface resistance in a non-contact manner. A semiconductor wafer is held on the stage. A laser beam is incident on a semiconductor wafer held on a stage from a laser optical system. Thermal radiant light from a semiconductor wafer held on a stage is incident on an infrared detector. The infrared detector outputs a signal corresponding to the intensity of the thermal radiation light. The processing device calculates the surface resistance of the semiconductor wafer annealed by the laser beam according to the output value of the infrared detector, and outputs the calculated value of the surface resistance to the output device.

Description

[0001] This application claims priority based on Japanese Patent Application No. 2017-170504 filed on September 5, 2017. The entire contents of this Japanese application are incorporated herein by reference. technical field [0002] The invention relates to a laser annealing device and a surface resistance calculation device. Background technique [0003] Conventionally, sheet resistance has been measured as an example of a method for grasping the in-plane distribution of the activation state of a semiconductor wafer implanted with a dopant and subjected to activation annealing. The activation state of the dopant can be evaluated from the in-plane distribution of the surface resistance. [0004] Patent Document 1: Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2007-81348 [0005] Generally, a four-probe method is used in the measurement of surface resistance. The measurement of surface resistance using the four-probe method was performed after annealing in a device different from the acti...
