Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the fields of chemical synthesis and semiconductor microelectronic devices, specifically to a single-crystal β-Bi2SeO5, its preparation method, and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] Two-dimensional semiconductors exhibit weak interactions between their layers, maintaining high mobility even at nanometer-scale thicknesses and effectively suppressing short-channel effects. Therefore, they are considered a key candidate material for the channel of next-generation field-effect transistors (FETs) in integrated circuits. During transistor miniaturization, not only the channel but also the dielectric layer must be miniaturized to maintain switching performance, a significant challenge for two-dimensional semiconductors. In recent years, some research has attempted to combine various dielectric materials with two-dimensional semiconductors, such as hBN, CaF2, Bi2SeO5, and commercially available HfO2. However, limited by dielectric constants or leakage current, the equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) can only be miniaturized to the 0.9 nm level (lower EOT results in stronger gate control), and various issues related to interface quality and process compatibility also exist. To date, gate dielectric layers compatible with two-dimensional semiconductors have not yet met the requirements of next-generation field-effect transistors.
[0003] Bismuth selenide oxide (Bi₂O₂Se) is a two-dimensional semiconductor material discovered in recent years, belonging to the tetragonal crystal system. From [Bi2O2] n 2n+ Layers and [Se] n 2n- It consists of alternating layers. Its band gap is moderate, approximately 0.85 eV, and its room-temperature electron mobility (measured by the Hall effect) is as high as 450 cm⁻¹. 2 V -1 s -1 Furthermore, it is environmentally stable and unaffected by water and oxygen corrosion at room temperature, making it a promising candidate for applications in high-performance logic circuits and flexible devices. Its oxide product, bismuth oxysene selenite (Bi₂SeO₅), has a bandgap exceeding 3.5 eV and a relative permittivity κ as high as approximately 21, making it an excellent self-oxidizing dielectric layer. In previous studies, polycrystalline and amorphous Bi₂SeO₅ have been successfully used as dielectric layers in two-dimensional field-effect transistors; however, when the equivalent oxide layer thickness is reduced to 0.9 nm, the leakage current already exceeds the low-power requirement (0.015 A / cm²). -2 At a gate voltage of 1V, its main weakness, insulation, needs further improvement. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a single-crystal β-Bi₂SeO₅, its preparation method, and its applications. This invention uses active oxygen generated from ultraviolet radiation pyrolysis of oxygen as an oxidant to oxidize bismuth [Se] in two-dimensional selenium.n 2n- Layer-intercalation oxidation, while maintaining [Bi2O2] n 2n+ The intact oxide layer structure allowed the oxide products to maintain the single-crystallinity of the bismuth selenide precursor, resulting in single-crystal β-Bi₂SeO₅. It exhibits a high dielectric constant of 22 and excellent insulation properties; even with an equivalent oxide layer thickness as thin as 0.41 nm (physical thickness 2.3 nm), its leakage current remains as low as 0.015 A / cm² at a gate voltage of 1 V. 2 The following features meet low power consumption requirements. The bismuth selenide oxide-based two-dimensional field-effect transistor, constructed with monocrystalline β-Bi2SeO5 as the dielectric layer, has stronger gate control capability (low EOT), lower gate leakage current, and a high-quality semiconductor / dielectric layer interface (low subthreshold swing and low hysteresis) compared to other two-dimensional field-effect transistors.

Detailed Implementation
[0073] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments. The embodiments given are only for illustrating the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0074] Unless otherwise specified, the experimental methods described in the following examples are conventional methods.
[0075] Unless otherwise specified, all materials and reagents used in the following examples are commercially available.
[0076] Example 1
[0077] (1) Growth of Bi2O2Se nanosheets: Weigh 1.5 g of Bi2O3 powder and 1.0 g of Bi2Se3 bulk material (20-25 sheets), and place them in the center and 5-8 cm upstream of the quartz tube of the tubular furnace. Place 3 fluorophlogopite substrates 9-12 cm downstream of the center of the tubular furnace. After two gas purgings, introduce carrier gas at an argon flow rate of 200-300 standard mL / min (sccm) and an argon-oxygen mixture (O2 volume fraction 0.1%) flow rate of 0.3-2.5 standard mL / min, so that the oxygen content is 1-10 ppm. Control the system pressure at 50-800 Torr using an electric valve. Raise the temperature to 620-680 degrees Celsius over 20 minutes and maintain it for 5-30 minutes for chemical vapor deposition. Allow the reaction to cool naturally to room temperature afterward. Remove the fluorophlogopite substrate with the deposited Bi2O2Se film to obtain layered Bi2O2Se nanosheets on its surface.
[0078] (2) Oxidation step: Bi2O2Se nanosheets grown on fluorophlogopite substrate were placed in an ultraviolet ozone cleaner. After setting the temperature (25°C), the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp) was turned on. The active oxygen generated by ultraviolet decomposition of oxygen was used as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation on the Bi2O2Se nanosheets. The oxidation time was 35 minutes to obtain Bi2O2Se with partial surface oxidation.
[0079] Figure 1 Photo a shows the UV ozone cleaner used in the oxidation process, with the gas phase reaction indicated below. Figure 1In the image, b represents optical microscope images of Bi2O2Se nanosheets before and after partial oxidation, indicating that Bi2O2Se has been partially transformed into a substance with a larger band gap and lower absorbance of visible light.
[0080] Example 2
[0081] (1) Preparation of Bi₂O₂Se single crystal thin film: Weigh 1.5 g of Bi₂O₃ powder and 1.0 g of Bi₂Se₃ bulk (20-25 pieces), place them in the center of the quartz tube of the tube furnace and 5-8 cm upstream, and place the strontium titanate substrate 11-14 cm downstream of the center of the tube furnace. After two gas purgings, introduce carrier gas. The argon flow rate is 200-300 standard mL / min (sccm), and the argon-oxygen mixture (O₂ volume fraction 0.1%) flow rate is 0.3-2.5 standard mL / min, so that the oxygen content is 1-10 ppm. Maintain the pressure at about 400 Torr. Raise the temperature to 670-700 degrees Celsius over 20 minutes and maintain it for 5-30 minutes for chemical vapor deposition. After the reaction, allow it to cool naturally to room temperature. Remove the strontium titanate substrate with the deposited Bi₂O₂Se thin film to obtain the Bi₂O₂Se single crystal thin film.
[0082] (2) Oxidation step: The Bi2O2Se single crystal film with a thickness of about 10 nm grown on the strontium titanate substrate was placed in an ultraviolet ozone cleaner, the temperature was set (120℃), and after the temperature stabilized, the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp) was turned on. The active oxygen generated by the ultraviolet decomposition of oxygen was used as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation on the Bi2O2Se single crystal film. The oxidation time was 1 hour, and a fully oxidized Bi2O2Se film was obtained.
[0083] Figure 2 These are the X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra of the Bi2O2Se single crystal thin film before and after oxidation in this embodiment. The reference material is Bi2SeO5 powder (prepared by mixing commercially available Bi2O3 and SeO2 powders at a molar ratio of 1:1, loading the mixture into a quartz tube, sealing the tube opening with an oxyhydrogen flame, sintering at 850°C for 12 hours, breaking the quartz tube, removing the white solid sample, and grinding it into powder). Figure 2 It can be seen that in the UV-assisted oxidation product, Se has a positive four-valent oxidation state, bismuth has a positive three-valent oxidation state, and oxygen has a negative two-valent oxidation state. The elemental ratio is approximately Bi:Se:O ~ 2:1:5. Therefore, it can be determined that the chemical formula of the oxidation product is Bi2SeO5.
[0084] Example 3
[0085] (1) The growth steps of the Bi2O2Se nanosheet sample were the same as those in Example 1.
[0086] (2) Oxidation step: The Bi2O2Se nanosheets grown on the fluorophlogopite substrate were placed in an ultraviolet ozone cleaner, the temperature was set (120℃), and after the temperature stabilized, the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp) was turned on. The active oxygen generated by the ultraviolet decomposition of oxygen was used as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation on the Bi2O2Se nanosheets. The oxidation time was 10 minutes, and partially oxidized Bi2O2Se nanosheets were obtained.
[0087] Figure 3 The images show a cross-sectional scanning transmission electron microscope (STEM) image of the Bi2O2Se / β-Bi2SeO5 heterostructure obtained in this example (i.e., the partially oxidized Bi2O2Se nanosheets obtained in (2)) at the oxidation front at the interface, along with a high-angle annular dark-field image (HAADF) and a schematic diagram of the crystal structure of Bi2O2Se and the self-oxidized product β-Bi2SeO5. As shown in the figure, this UV-assisted oxidation is an intercalation oxidation. The Bi-O framework of the precursor remains intact, and the interlayer spacing expands from 0.61 nm to 0.78 nm, resulting in a new layered oxide that inherits the Bi-O framework of the Bi2O2Se precursor and is different from the bulk Bi2SeO5. Combined with the chemical formula of Bi2SeO5 determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy in Example 2, it is named β-Bi2SeO5 here to reflect the difference between its crystal structure and that of the bulk Bi2SeO5 (here referred to as α-Bi2SeO5).
[0088] Example 4
[0089] (1) The growth steps of the Bi2O2Se nanosheet sample were the same as those in Example 1.
[0090] (2) Transfer steps: A layer of PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) was spin-coated onto the Bi2O2Se nanosheets on fluorophlogopite at 4000 rpm. The substrate was then immersed in a 5% HF solution to slightly etch the fluorophlogopite substrate. After 5 minutes, the substrate was retrieved into water, where the surface tension of the water allowed the PMMA to float and detach from the fluorophlogopite substrate, thus carrying away some of the Bi2O2Se nanosheets. The PMMA was then transferred to a transmission electron microscope (TEM) grid (gold grid), and dissolved in acetone, leaving the Bi2O2Se nanosheets on the grid. The nanosheets were characterized by TEM and selected area electron diffraction (SAED) before oxidation, after partial oxidation, and after complete oxidation.
[0091] (2) Oxidation Step: The transmission electron microscope (TEM) screen was placed in an ultraviolet ozone cleaner, and the temperature was set to 120℃. After the temperature stabilized, the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp) was turned on. The active oxygen generated by the decomposition of oxygen by ultraviolet light was used as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation of the Bi2O2Se sample for 15 minutes. After one side was oxidized, the TEM screen was flipped over, and the other side was oxidized under the same conditions. This resulted in a β-Bi2SeO5 / Bi2O2Se / β-Bi2SeO5 stacked heterostructure with partial oxidation on both sides. After TEM characterization, the temperature was set to 150℃ and oxidized for 1 hour to completely oxidize the sample. TEM characterization was then performed again.
[0092] Figure 4 It is the Bi2O2Se nanosheets on the carrier network before oxidation ( Figure 4 a) After partial oxidation on both sides (b) After complete oxidation ( Figure 4 The transmission electron microscope (TEM) image and selected area electron diffraction (SED) pattern in (c) are shown. The image shows only one lattice and one set of diffraction points, indicating that the UV-assisted oxidation product β-Bi₂SeO₅ completely inherits the heavy atom framework of the Bi₂O₂Se precursor and maintains a strict lattice match with it. Therefore, for a single-crystal Bi₂O₂Se precursor, the UV-assisted oxidation product is also a single crystal.
[0093] Figure 5 This is a selected area electron diffraction pattern of the same Bi₂O₂Se nanosheet at different locations on the web after complete oxidation. The pattern shows only one set of diffraction points, and they remain parallel at different locations, indicating that the UV-assisted oxidation product β-Bi₂SeO₅ of the single-crystal Bi₂O₂Se nanosheet is indeed single-crystal.
[0094] Example 5
[0095] (1) The growth steps of the Bi2O2Se nanosheet sample were the same as those in Example 1.
[0096] (2) Oxidation step: Place the Bi2O2Se nanosheet sample on fluorophlogopite in an ultraviolet ozone cleaner, set the temperature (25℃~300℃), and turn on the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp) after the temperature stabilizes. Use the active oxygen generated by ultraviolet decomposition of oxygen as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation of the Bi2O2Se sample for 1~35 minutes.
[0097] Thickness measurement procedure: The thickness of the partially oxidized Bi2O2Se nanosheets was measured using an atomic force microscope (AFM). Then, the β-Bi2SeO5 oxide layer was etched away with a 0.2% HF solution for 20 seconds. The remaining thickness of the Bi2O2Se nanosheets was measured again, and the difference was the oxide layer thickness.
[0098] Figure 6The figure shows the oxide layer thickness of Bi₂O₂Se nanosheets on fluorophlogopite after UV-assisted oxidation at 25–300 °C for 1–35 minutes. As shown in the figure, UV-assisted oxidation is initially controlled by interfacial reaction, but changes to diffusion control as the oxide layer thickens. Based on the oxidation rate-temperature relationship, the activation energy of the UV-assisted oxidation process can be read as approximately 19.8 kJ / mol.
[0099] Example 6
[0100] (1) The growth steps of the Bi2O2Se single crystal thin film sample are the same as those in Example 2.
[0101] (2) Oxidation step: Place the Bi2O2Se single crystal thin film sample (about 10nm) on SrTiO3 in an ultraviolet ozone cleaner, set the temperature (50℃~300℃), and turn on the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp) after the temperature stabilizes. Use the active oxygen generated by ultraviolet decomposition of oxygen as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation on the Bi2O2Se single crystal thin film sample until it is completely oxidized and transformed into β-Bi2SeO5 (visibly white and transparent to the naked eye).
[0102] (3) Heat annealing step: The sample that has been completely oxidized to β-Bi2SeO5 is heated in a tube furnace at 340-380℃ for 30 minutes in air atmosphere and then taken out.
[0103] Figure 7 These are X-ray diffraction patterns of Bi₂O₂Se single-crystal thin film samples on SrTiO₃ after complete UV-assisted oxidation at different temperatures, resulting in complete conversion to β-Bi₂SeO₅. Figure 7 (a) and the X-ray diffraction pattern after high-temperature annealing in an air atmosphere in a tube furnace ( Figure 7 (b) The references are Bi₂O₂Se and the product of Bi₂O₂Se thermal oxidation in air at 400℃ (the same bulk phase, referred to here as α-Bi₂SeO₅). As shown in the figure, the UV-assisted oxidation product from 50℃ to 300℃ is β-Bi₂SeO₅, and it can withstand air annealing at 340℃, indicating that it has sufficient thermal stability in air. However, when heated to 360℃ or above, β-Bi₂SeO₅ transforms into the high-temperature stable phase α-Bi₂SeO₅.
[0104] Example 7
[0105] (1) The growth steps of the Bi2O2Se nanosheet sample were the same as those in Example 1.
[0106] (2) Oxidation step: The Bi2O2Se nanosheets grown on the fluorophlogopite substrate were placed in an ultraviolet ozone cleaner, the temperature was set to 25℃ (room temperature), and the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp) was turned on. The active oxygen generated by the ultraviolet decomposition of oxygen was used as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation on the Bi2O2Se sample. The oxidation time was 6 to 30 minutes to obtain partially oxidized Bi2O2Se nanosheets.

[0111] (2) Self-made photomask processing steps: Using a commercially available quartz ultraviolet window as a substrate, gold with a thickness of 230nm is deposited by magnetron sputtering. Then, using commercially available photoresist as the processing target, the surface pattern is processed by laser direct writing technology. Using the photoresist as a mask, the gold is selectively etched using the reverse sputtering function of a magnetron sputtering instrument at a power of 50W and an argon flow rate of 100sccm until it becomes transparent. Afterwards, the photoresist is removed in a plasma cleaner using oxygen plasma (500W, 10sccm for 2h), thus obtaining the self-made gold photomask.
[0112] (3) Oxidation step: In a Class 100 cleanroom, the UV lamp (square with a side length of 10cm) of the UV ozone cleaner is wrapped with aluminum foil, leaving only a circular hole with a diameter of about 2.5cm in the center. The Bi2O2Se single crystal thin film sample (10nm) on the 1-inch wafer SrTiO3 is placed in the UV ozone cleaner. The self-made gold photomask is carefully covered on the sample wafer (no photoresist required), the distance is set to the farthest, the temperature is set to 100℃, and the oxidation is carried out for 16h. The photomask is then removed and the sample is taken out.

[0117] Dielectric constant measurement using microwave impedance microscopy: A microwave impedance microscopy (MIM) mounted on an atomic force microscope (AFM) instrument was used to scan the vicinity of the edge of a fully oxidized nanosheet (β-Bi₂SeO₅), simultaneously obtaining dielectric property information of the β-Bi₂SeO₅ nanosheet and the fluorophlogopite substrate (dielectric constant 5.5). The instrument emitted 1.0 GHz microwaves, and the microwave impedance signal was measured while the morphology and thickness were being measured. The imaginary part was extracted and fitted to the thickness. Finite element analysis was then performed, combining the substrate dielectric constant and the relative value of the signal, to obtain the dielectric constant of β-Bi₂SeO₅ nanosheets of various thicknesses.

Figure 10 In part a), the directly measured thickness is related to the imaginary part of the microwave signal. Figure 10 b) in the figure, for thickness fitting ( Figure 10 c) and the measured dielectric constant results ( Figure 10 (d) As shown in the figure, the dielectric constant of β-Bi2SeO5 nanosheets is as high as 22 and does not decrease with the thinning of the sample, even when the thickness is less than 3 nm.

Set the temperature (270℃), and after the temperature stabilizes for 1 minute, turn on the ultraviolet lamp (low-pressure mercury lamp). Use the active oxygen generated by the decomposition of oxygen by ultraviolet light as the oxidant to perform ultraviolet-assisted oxidation on the Bi2O2Se nanosheet samples. The oxidation time is 75 s, resulting in Bi2O2Se nanosheets with the surface partially oxidized to single-crystal β-Bi2SeO5 (thickness 2.3-3.1 nm) (Bi2O2Se / single-crystal β-Bi2SeO5 nanosheets).
