Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of semiconductor film preparation, and relates to a semiconductor film and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art
[0002] Semiconductor thin films are widely used in electronic devices, photovoltaic devices, sensors and optoelectronic devices. For example, gallium nitride is a wide bandgap semiconductor material with excellent material properties such as direct bandgap and high electron mobility. Gallium nitride thin films have been widely used in optoelectronic devices (such as LEDs, detectors and sensors).
[0003] The method for preparing semiconductor thin films is generally electrochemical wet etching and stripping, which mainly uses electrochemical principles. For example, when preparing gallium nitride thin films, free carriers (holes) are introduced into the gallium nitride wafer by applying voltage, making it easy to corrode in electrolytes (such as hydrofluoric acid, oxalic acid, nitric acid and potassium hydroxide). Among them, the gallium nitride wafer serves as the anode, and by applying a bias voltage, electron-hole pairs are excited. The holes participate in the oxidation reaction of gallium nitride and destroy the structure of gallium nitride, thereby achieving corrosion stripping and obtaining a gallium nitride film.
[0004] The development of electrochemical wet etching stripping technology is mainly focused on increasing the film area, improving the film surface quality and expanding the scope of application. At present, in the wafer-level (2-inch) size etching process, the stripped semiconductor film is fully immersed in the liquid during the etching process, resulting in the continuous corrosion and force erosion of the semiconductor film surface by the liquid; in addition, the process of removing the film from the solution is very susceptible to external stress. These unavoidable factors can easily lead to the breakage of the film, so that only semiconductor films with too small an area, poor regularity and more surface damage can be obtained.
[0005] Based on the above research, it is necessary to provide a method for preparing a semiconductor thin film, which can obtain a semiconductor thin film with a large area, high regularity and basically no surface damage. Summary of the invention
[0006] The object of the present invention is to provide a semiconductor film and a preparation method and application thereof. The preparation method only requires that the semiconductor wafer be in contact with or partially immersed in a corrosion solution, so that the corrosion solution climbs above the wafer using a capillary effect. Since most areas of the semiconductor wafer are not in direct contact with the corrosion solution, the semiconductor film will not be affected by the corrosion and force of the solution during the corrosion process, thereby being able to peel off a large-area, high-regularity, and substantially surface-damaged semiconductor film at the wafer level.
[0007] In order to achieve the purpose of the invention, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:
[0008] In a first aspect, the present invention provides a method for preparing a semiconductor thin film, the method comprising the following steps:
[0009] The semiconductor wafer is brought into contact with the liquid surface of the etching solution, or the semiconductor wafer portion of the target stripping area is partially immersed in the etching solution for electrochemical etching stripping, the etching solution climbs onto the semiconductor wafer, and then the semiconductor wafer is immersed in water to obtain the semiconductor film.
[0010] The electrochemical corrosion stripping system includes an anode, a cathode and an electrolyte, the semiconductor wafer serves as the anode, and the corrosion solution serves as the electrolyte.
[0011] The present invention utilizes the capillary effect and only needs to contact the semiconductor wafer with the liquid surface of the etching solution, or immerse a part of the semiconductor wafer in the etching solution for electrochemical etching stripping, so that the etching solution can utilize the capillary effect to climb onto the semiconductor wafer that is not in contact with the etching solution, thereby avoiding the problem that when the semiconductor wafer is fully immersed in the etching solution, the semiconductor film is affected by the etching solution, resulting in the semiconductor film having a small area, poor regularity and more surface damage. Therefore, since the partial area of the semiconductor wafer described in the present invention is not in direct contact with the etching solution, the semiconductor film will not be affected by the corrosion and force of the solution during the etching process, so that a semiconductor film with a large area, high regularity and basically no surface damage can be stripped at the wafer level.
[0012] The present invention partially immerses the semiconductor wafer in the target stripping area. For example, when the target stripping area accounts for 90% of the semiconductor wafer, a part of the 90% area is immersed in the corrosion solution, and there is no need to immerse the entire target stripping area in the corrosion solution; wherein, the present invention does not make specific limitations on the target stripping area, for example, the volume accounts for more than 90% of the entire semiconductor wafer.
[0013] After the etching solution of the present invention utilizes the capillary effect to climb and peel off the semiconductor wafer, the semiconductor wafer is directly immersed in water (deionized water or high-purity water) to directly obtain a semiconductor thin film.
[0014] Preferably, the volume of the semiconductor wafer below the liquid surface of the corrosive solution accounts for 0-10% of the volume of the entire semiconductor wafer, for example, it can be 0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%, 5%, 6%, 7%, 8%, 9% or 10%, but is not limited to the listed values, and other unlisted values within the numerical range are also applicable.
[0015] When the volume of the semiconductor wafer below the liquid surface of the etching solution accounts for 0% of the volume of the entire semiconductor wafer, the semiconductor wafer is in contact with the liquid surface of the etching solution.
[0016] In order to avoid the problem of damage to the semiconductor film caused by direct contact between the etching solution and the semiconductor wafer to the greatest extent, the present invention preferably allows the volume of the semiconductor wafer below the etching solution surface to account for 0-10% of the volume of the entire semiconductor wafer.

[0024] When performing electrochemical corrosion stripping, the voltage of the electrochemical corrosion stripping will be selective to the doping concentration of each layer in the semiconductor wafer. The present invention ensures that the doping concentration of the sacrificial layer of the semiconductor material is greater than the doping concentration of the conductive layer of the semiconductor material, so that the doping concentration of the sacrificial layer of the semiconductor material is the highest, ensuring that only the sacrificial layer of the semiconductor material is corroded without corroding other layers.
[0025] Preferably, the semiconductor material target layer is a non-doped semiconductor material layer, and the doping concentration of the semiconductor material sacrificial layer is 1×10 19 cm-3 above (for example, it can be 1×10 19 cm -3 , 5×10 19 cm -3 or 1×10 20 cm -3 ), the doping concentration of the semiconductor material conductive layer is 1×10 18 cm -3 above (for example, it can be 1×10 18 cm -3 , 5×10 18 cm -3 or 1×10 19 cm -3 ), but it is necessary to ensure that the doping concentration of the semiconductor material sacrificial layer is greater than the doping concentration of the semiconductor material conductive layer. Preferably, the doping concentration of the semiconductor material sacrificial layer is more than 5 times the doping concentration of the semiconductor material conductive layer, but not too close, for example, it can be 5 times, 10 times, 15 times or 20 times; wherein, the doping elements of the semiconductor material sacrificial layer and the semiconductor material conductive layer can exemplarily be silicon.
