Abstract

The invention relates to a laser annealing method of a power device, in the annealing process, short-wavelength laser and long-wavelength laser are used for annealing activation, the wavelength rangeof the short-wavelength laser is 300nm to 560nm, and the wavelength range of the long-wavelength laser is 780nm to 1064nm; by selecting laser mixed configurations with different wavelengths for use, ion annealing in different melting ranges and impurity distribution depth ranges and implantation annealing of multiple layers of impurity ions are realized, and meanwhile, the laser mixed configurations with proper wavelengths are selected for use by comprehensively considering the temperature resistance and fragment resistance of different types of wafers; therefore, shallow surface activation under different thermal budget conditions is realized. The invention provides the laser annealing method and a laser annealing system for the power device, which control impurity activation efficiency and impurity distribution by using laser annealing and avoid the technical problem of fragments caused by heat accumulation due to overhigh temperature in the laser annealing process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of laser annealing in the semiconductor industry, in particular to a laser annealing method and a laser annealing system for controlling impurity activation and impurity distribution by using laser annealing. Background technique [0002] In the manufacture of semiconductor chips, ion implantation will be performed on the back of the wafer or the source and drain of some devices. This step will cause serious damage to the crystal lattice, and the doped impurity ions cannot be located in the correct lattice position. , so it does not have effective electrical activity. At this time, the material needs to be heat-treated to repair the lattice damage and activate the electrical activity of impurity ions. This heat treatment process is annealing. [0003] Traditionally used annealing processes, including furnace tube annealing, flash lamp annealing (FLA, Flash Lamp Annealing), spike annealing (Spike Annealing), ...
