Abstract

The invention provides a semiconductor material energy gap measuring method and device. The measuring method comprises the steps: a measuring sample is obtained and placed in a measuring device; the position relationship between the measurement electron beam and the measurement surface of the measurement sample is adjusted and the measurement electron beam is emitted; and an energy loss spectrum of the measurement electron beam is collected to obtain an energy gap value of the measurement sample, wherein the emitting direction of the measurement electron beam is parallel to the measurement surface of the measurement sample. The measurement electron beam and the measurement surface of the measurement sample are parallel to each other and are not in contact with each other, so that the acquired electron energy loss spectrum is prevented from containing exciton information, and the energy gap measurement accuracy is further improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of semiconductor measurement, and more specifically, to a method and device for measuring an energy gap of semiconductor materials. Background technique [0002] At present, in order to increase the storage capacity of a storage device, a 3D stacking technology is generally used to achieve high performance and high integration of the storage device. In a highly integrated memory device, the conductivity of the semiconductor material determines the performance of the memory device. At present, in the process of manufacturing 3D memory devices, it is particularly important to perform energy gap engineering on the silicon compound layer and the conductive layer. [0003] The existing technology generally uses electron energy loss spectroscopy to measure the energy gap value of semiconductor materials. This method guides the generated electron beam through the film to be tested and collects the interacting elec...
