Embodiment 1

[0022] Insert clean 2-inch monocrystalline silicon wafers (p-type, 110) upright on the quartz boat, load 80 silicon wafers at a time, place them at equal intervals, and the distance between the wafers is 8mm, and place the loaded quartz boat on the figure 1 At the central position of the hot-wall tubular quartz reactor, turn on the vacuum pump and pump it down to below 0.5Pa. The temperature at the central position of the reactor, that is, the substrate temperature, is 700°C. In order to improve the uniformity of the deposited film, a resistance heating furnace ( That is, the temperature gradient between the inlet and outlet of the aforementioned diffusion furnace) is 20°C, and the deposition can only begin after the temperature is controlled to ±1°C. Electronic grade high purity NH 3 as N source, with [(C 2 h 5 ) 2 N] 3 SiCl is the source of Si, the flow rates of the two are 80 and 10 sccm respectively, and high-purity N 2 (99.999%) is the carrier gas used to adjust the ...

Abstract

This invention relates to a chemical vapor deposition method for manufacturing silicon nitride (SiNx) thin films. The method uses NH3 as nitrogen source, and organic silicon precursor (R1R2N) nSi (R3)4-n as silicon source, wherein R1, R2 = H, CH3, C2H5, C3H7 or C4H9, R3 = H or Cl, and n = 2, 3 or 4. With optimized conditions, the low-pressure chemical vapor deposition method can manufacture uniform, low H and C content and near stoichiometric SiNx thin films at a relatively low reaction temperature. SiNx (x = 1.28-1.33) thin films can be used in semiconductor industry and silicon-based solar cells.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing SiN at low temperature by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) x thin film method, more precisely with NH 3 SiN is prepared at low temperature by Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) process using organosilicon source precursor as the source of nitrogen. x A thin film method belongs to the field of semiconductor thin films. Background technique [0002] In a semiconductor integrated circuit, an insulating film for electrical isolation between devices and between wirings is very important. In order to improve the stability and reliability of device performance, the device must be isolated from the surrounding environment to enhance the device's ability to block external ion contamination, control and stabilize the characteristics of the semiconductor surface, protect the internal interconnection of the device and prevent Devices are subject to mechanical and chemical damage. Due to the good interf...
