TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of electronic semiconductor devices, in particular to a high-performance multi-component thin film preparation method based on defect-induced regulation and application. BACKGROUND
[0002] In order to improve the integration of semiconductor materials, the size of the device is gradually reduced to the range of several nanometers, and thin film deposition in a high aspect ratio trench structure is essential. Traditional thin film deposition methods, such as PVD and CVD, are difficult to obtain very uniform thin films with precise control of thickness and composition at low processing temperature. In contrast, atomic layer deposition (ALD) is an isotropic thin film deposition method based on surface half-reactions. ALD technology has the advantages of good step coverage, atomic-level thickness control, almost stoichiometric element composition, excellent thickness uniformity and relatively low processing temperature, and is the most suitable thin film deposition method for preparing high-integration devices.
[0003] In recent years, due to its good uniformity, high electron mobility and transparency, and extremely low off-state current, multi-component wide-bandgap amorphous oxide semiconductor materials (AOS), such as InGaZnO, have received extensive attention in many fields such as display and storage. AOS thin film transistor (AOS TFT) devices and CIM (computing-in-memory) architecture can be a possible solution for high-density, high-performance and high-efficiency applications, and are expected to further reduce the feature size in the von Neumann architecture and overcome the "memory wall" limitation. In the deposition of multi-component thin films, the most common method for synthesizing multi-component materials by ALD is to alternate two binary ALD processes in several cycles in a supercycle. The number of supercycles is changed to obtain the desired film thickness. Although the supercycle method has been widely used in the preparation of multi-component thin films, it inevitably has interfacial defects (atomic vacancies, dangling bonds, etc.) and element-rich regions due to the layer-by-layer stacking of components, resulting in a decrease in doping efficiency. When the required doping element content is very low, the number of cycles of the host material and the number of cycles of the doping material differ greatly, resulting in uneven distribution of the doping element in the entire thin film. In addition, the growth mechanism of ALD-prepared multi-component thin films is not simply the sum of each sub-cycle. For example, in an ideal case, the growth rate of a multi-component thin film should be obtained by linear addition of the growth rate of each sub-cycle. However, a large number of studies have shown that the growth rate of a multi-component thin film is much lower than the expected growth rate (GPC), which is called growth delay, which results in the loss of the advantages of ALD in precise control of thin films and deviation of the film composition from the expected value. The mechanism of the growth delay phenomenon is still unclear, and more comprehensive research is needed to propose a more universal solution to achieve ideal ALD growth and atomic-level thickness control of multi-component thin films. SUMMARY
[0004] The application aims to solve the above-mentioned defects in the prior art ALD supercycle method for preparing multi-component thin films, and provides a high-performance multi-component thin film preparation method based on defect-induced regulation and application.
[0005] In the ALD deposition process of thin films, it is generally believed that the growth of thin films is an ideal "layer-by-layer" growth mode, that is, each atomic monolayer of thin film is defect-free. However, in actual situation, due to the steric hindrance effect between precursor molecules, the adsorption of precursors on the substrate surface is not complete, so there are atomic vacancies in each atomic monolayer at the micro level, which reduces the density of the thin film. In addition, when preparing trace-doped thin films by ALD, the deposition times of the main material are much greater than those of the doping material, so even through high-temperature annealing to promote the diffusion of doping elements, it is also difficult to make the doping material uniformly distributed in the entire thin film. In order to solve the problems of atomic vacancies reducing the density of thin films and uneven distribution of doping elements, the application provides a high-performance multi-component thin film preparation method based on defect-induced regulation.
[0006] The application is implemented through the following technical solutions:
[0007] A high-performance multi-component thin film preparation method based on defect-induced regulation, the preparation method comprising the following steps:
[0008] S1, placing a substrate into an aluminum cavity, vacuumizing the cavity to reach a certain cavity gas pressure, and heating the cavity to a certain temperature;
[0009] S2, first introducing a first metal precursor into the cavity, inert gas purging, then introducing a second metal precursor, inert gas purging, introducing an oxidizing agent to oxidize the precursors, and inert gas purging;
[0010] S3, repeating the above step S2 for N times to obtain a uniformly doped thin film with a thickness of [5.5nm, 7.5nm]. The value range of the repetition number N is [25, 100].
[0011] Since the second metal precursor is introduced before the first metal precursor is oxidized in this method, the first metal precursor occupies the surface active sites not occupied by the first metal precursor in advance, so the density of atomic arrangement is significantly improved, and the growth delay phenomenon is also inhibited.
[0012] Further, the substrate in step S1 is an alkali-free glass with a thickness of about 0.5mm-1mm.
[0013] Further, the heating in step S1 is to 150-250℃. The above temperature range is the temperature process window of the metal precursors used in the present application, and the metal precursors can realize typical ALD mode growth of thin films in the temperature range.
[0014] Further, the oxidant in step S2 is water or ozone, and the concentration of ozone is 100 mg / L. In the present application, the oxidant for tetra-dimethylamino tin and trimethyl indium is ozone, and the oxidant for diethyl zinc is water. The above oxidants are selected to ensure that the metal precursor ligand can be completely removed after the reaction to obtain a thin film with high purity.
[0015] Further, the inert gas in step S2 is N2, and the flow rate is 10-15 standard cubic centimeters per minute (sccm). The above gas flow rate changes the cavity gas pressure on the one hand, and ensures the uniform distribution of the metal precursor and the reactant in the cavity on the other hand, and ensures that the excess metal precursor and the reactant, and the reaction byproduct can be completely discharged from the cavity.
[0016] Further, the cavity gas pressure in step S1 is 0.10-0.20 Torr.
[0017] Further, the metal precursor pulse time in step S2 is 0.06-0.8 s, and the oxidant pulse time is 0.015-4 s. The cavity gas pressure change caused by the metal precursor pulse is about 0.08 Torr, the cavity gas pressure change caused by the water pulse is about 0.06 Torr, and the cavity gas pressure change caused by the ozone pulse is about 0.09 Torr. The above process conditions can realize the saturated adsorption and complete reaction of the metal precursor on the substrate.
[0018] Further, the first metal precursor material and the second metal precursor material in step S2 are any one or a combination of halides, alkyl compounds, cyclopentadienyl compounds, carbonyl compounds, and alkylamino compounds. Due to the obvious difference in the size and steric hindrance effect of the precursor molecules, the above different precursor combinations can obtain thin films with different doping ratios.
[0019] Further, a plurality of different kinds of metal precursor combinations can be selected in step S2 to prepare a multi-component thin film by the same process of inert gas purging. The above step solves the growth delay phenomenon existing in the traditional method and realizes the precise control of the thickness of the thin film.
[0020] The above method can prepare a uniform doped or multi-component thin film with low defect density and high density.
[0021] The present application has the following advantages and effects relative to the prior art:
[0022] (1) The present application takes into account the difference in steric hindrance between different precursors, and uses a three-step sub-cycle method to pass the second precursor before the first precursor molecule adsorbed on the substrate is oxidized, to occupy the unused active sites on the surface in advance, to realize the atomic vacancy filling of the first precursor molecule, greatly improving the density of the thin film and reducing the defect density in the thin film.
[0023] (2) Since the first step of the three-step cycle has occupied most of the active sites on the substrate surface, and the oxidation reaction of two different metal precursors in the same atomic monolayer is realized, the present application can realize uniform doping of ultra-low amount of elements, wherein the doping ratio is slightly adjusted by the ligand size of the selected doping element precursor and the first precursor.
[0024] (3) The method of the present application reduces the atomic gap filling effect of the precursors during the deposition of multi-component thin films, which not only reduces the atomic vacancies in the thin film and realizes the growth mode without growth delay, but also reduces the surface relief of the thin film and improves the surface properties of the thin film, which is beneficial to the good interface contact between the prepared thin film and the remaining functional layer. Compared with the existing super-cycle process, the present application shows excellent thin film thickness control and large-area uniformity, providing a great prospect for the development of atomic layer deposition of multi-component thin film materials.

[0098] Comparative Example 3
[0099] The comparative example discloses a preparation method of an InSnZnO film based on a conventional super-cycle method, and the specific preparation steps are as follows:
[0100] S1, taking trimethylindium (TMI), tetramethylammonium tin (TDMASn), and diethyl zinc (DEZ) as ALD precursors, and water and ozone as reactants;

[0114] Table 1. Comparison table of results of Example 1, 2 and Comparative Example 1
[0115]
[0116] As can be seen from Table 1, in the binary cycle of Comparative Example 1, due to the steric hindrance effect between TMI precursor molecules, there are atomic vacancies in the atomic stacking process, resulting in a deviation of the film density from the theoretical density of In2O3 (~ 7.1 g / cm 3 ). By comparing the growth rates of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1, it can be found that the growth rates of the two are almost the same, which is because TMI occupies most of the active sites on the surface, resulting in only a small amount of TDMASn atoms being able to successfully occupy the active sites not occupied by TMI. Therefore, the growth rates of Example 1 and Comparative Example 1 are similar, and due to the effect of Sn atoms filling the atomic vacancies, the density of Example 1 is improved to 6.98 g / cm compared with Comparative Example 1.3 The elemental analysis results show that trace amount of Sn atom incorporation (~0.5%) is achieved in Example 1, and this amount of doping can be further increased by choosing precursors with smaller molecular volume for deposition, as shown in the results of Example 2 in Table 1.
[0117] The above examples are the preferred embodiments of the present application, but the embodiments of the present application are not limited to the above examples, and any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principles of the present application should be equivalent replacement methods, and are all included in the protection scope of the present application.
