Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of semiconductor wafer polishing technology, specifically to a quantum dot nanolayer with matching removal efficiency, its in-situ growth method, and its application. Background Technology
[0002] In recent years, wide-bandgap semiconductor materials, represented by silicon carbide (SiC), gallium oxide (Ga2O3), diamond, and aluminum oxide (Al2O3), have gradually become ideal substrate materials for next-generation power electronic devices and high-frequency, high-speed devices due to their high breakdown electric field strength (SiC is about ten times that of silicon), high thermal conductivity, high hardness, and excellent wear resistance and chemical stability. In practical applications, device performance is highly dependent on the surface quality of the substrate material. If the substrate material has excessively high surface roughness or defects (microcracks, scratches, and damaged layers), it will not only reduce carrier mobility but may also become electric field concentration points, leading to premature device failure. Therefore, high-precision polishing technology is widely used in the processing of wide-bandgap semiconductors. By eliminating surface defects and improving flatness and smoothness, it ensures stable device performance, reduces subsequent processing costs, and provides quality consistency and reliability guarantees for large-scale industrialization.
[0003] However, in the actual manufacturing and processing of semiconductor materials, due to their high hardness and strong chemical inertness, traditional polishing processes relying solely on mechanical abrasion present challenges such as high polishing difficulty, poor removal efficiency, and long processing cycles, making it difficult to meet the demands of high-efficiency production. Furthermore, mechanical abrasion easily introduces microcracks, scratches, and residual stress layers into the surface, forming a processing damage layer that degrades the electrical and optical performance of devices and increases processing costs. Therefore, these problems have become significant bottlenecks restricting the large-scale industrial application of wide-bandgap semiconductor materials, necessitating the development of precision polishing technologies that combine high removal rates, low damage, and low cost. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the problems of low removal efficiency, high damage, and high cost associated with traditional polishing processes, this invention proposes a quantum dot nanolayer with matched removal efficiency, its in-situ growth method, and its application. The technical solution of this invention is as follows:
[0005] An in-situ growth method for removing efficiency-matched quantum dot nanolayers includes the following steps:
[0006] The polymer matrix was added to dimethylformamide (DMF) and stirred to obtain a polymer / DMF solution; the nanocrystal precursor solution was added to the polymer / DMF solution and mixed, heated and stirred overnight; the mixed solution was spin-coated onto a semiconductor wafer to obtain a wet film, annealed, and the in-situ growth of a quantum dot nanolayer with matching removal efficiency was completed.
[0007] Furthermore, the polymer matrix is any one of polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), or hydrogenated styrene-butadiene block copolymer (SEBS) powder.
[0008] Furthermore, the volume ratio of the precursor solution to the polymer / DMF solution is 1~2:5~6.
[0009] Furthermore, the semiconductor wafer is any one of silicon carbide, diamond, gallium oxide, and aluminum oxide.
[0010] Furthermore, the nanocrystal precursor solution is FAPbI3DMF solution, CsPbI3DMF solution, or C4H 12 Any one of the following: NMnCl3DMF solution, (BTP)2MnBr4DMF solution, (PEA)2PbBr4:MnDMF solution, CsPbBr3DMF solution, and Cs3Cu2I5DMF solution.
[0011] Furthermore, the stirring temperature is 100~120℃; the PMMA, PVA, and SEBS powders are added to DMF and stirred for 1~3 hours.
[0012] Furthermore, the spin coating speed is 1000~3000 rpm; the spin coating time is 20~40 s.
[0013] Furthermore, the annealing temperature is 100~150℃.
[0014] A quantum dot nanolayer with removal efficiency matching is obtained by in-situ growth using the above-mentioned in-situ growth method.
[0015] An application of the aforementioned quantum dot nanolayer with matching removal efficiency is applied to the polishing of semiconductor materials.
[0016] Compared with existing technologies, this invention solves the problems of low removal efficiency, high damage, and high cost in traditional polishing processes. Specifically, the beneficial effects are as follows:
[0017] 1. Removal Efficiency Matching Mechanism: This invention, by controlling the composition and structural parameters of quantum dots, grows nanolayers of different quantum dots in situ on the surface of semiconductor wafers. These nanolayers, used as sacrificial layers, effectively disperse mechanical stress and reduce direct force on the wafer surface during the polishing and removal process of semiconductor wafer materials. This significantly reduces the polishing difficulty of high-hardness semiconductor materials and improves removal efficiency. It achieves a high degree of matching with the target semiconductor wafer in terms of removal efficiency, effectively improving the stability and processing quality of the polishing process, and can meet the fine processing needs of different types of high-hardness semiconductor materials.
[0018] 2. Effective Reduction of Surface Roughness: This invention effectively reduces the surface roughness of semiconductor wafers by growing quantum dot nanolayers in situ on the wafer surface and then performing a polishing process. Because the quantum dot nanolayers can uniformly cover and fill micro-defects and uneven areas on the wafer surface at a microscale, they act as a buffer layer, significantly improving the uniformity and controllability of material removal during subsequent polishing. This avoids the localized stress concentration and irregular wear phenomena that easily occur in traditional mechanical polishing. This invention not only significantly improves the overall flatness and smoothness of the wafer surface but also effectively reduces surface damage and defect generation caused by excessive grinding, enhancing the integrity and reliability of the wafer surface and providing superior surface quality assurance for subsequent device fabrication.
[0019] 3. Reduced Processing Costs: This invention achieves effective control of surface energy states during semiconductor wafer processing by constructing a quantum dot nanolayer in situ on the semiconductor wafer surface. This significantly alleviates localized stress concentration, enabling subsequent polishing processes to achieve high-quality surface processing with lower energy consumption and less abrasive. It effectively avoids the problems of traditional polishing processes relying on high-energy-consuming equipment and complex procedures, simplifies the processing flow, improves process stability and controllability, and significantly reduces overall energy and raw material consumption, demonstrating outstanding economic advantages. Processing costs can be reduced by more than 70%, fully demonstrating the application potential and industrialization value of this invention in the field of high-precision semiconductor wafer processing.

[0070] Removal efficiency test:
[0071] The removal efficiency of the quantum dot nanolayers prepared in Examples 1-7 was tested using pulsed ion beams. The test steps are as follows:
[0072] (1) Clean the surface of the in-situ grown quantum dot nanolayers obtained in Examples 1-7 with an air gun to ensure that there is no dust or other contaminants. Then, install the workpiece on a high-precision processing platform and ensure that its position is fixed.
[0073] (2) Set the ion beam polishing parameters: ion beam rate power 110 W, grid voltage 800 V, acceleration grid 110 V, grid current 18 mA, neutralizer current 158 mA, Ar gas flow rate 40 SCCM. Set the scanning mode of the polishing process to Cartesian coordinate mode.
[0074] (3) Start the vacuum pump to ensure that the polishing process is carried out in a high vacuum environment to avoid collision between the ion beam and air molecules and reduce energy loss.
[0075] (4) Start the ion source to generate an ion beam. The ion beam used is Ar. + source.
[0076] (5) Start the polishing removal process, and set the polishing time to 60 min.
[0077] (6) After polishing is completed, restore the working environment to normal.
[0078] like Figure 8 The graph shows the removal efficiency results for different quantum dot nanolayers. It can be seen that the removal efficiency increases with the increase of the number of quantum dot atoms. Specifically, C4H... 12The removal efficiencies of NMnCl3, CsPbBr3, and FAPbI3 quantum dot nanolayers are in the range of 1–3.5 μm / h, matching those of diamond (1–3 μm / h). The removal efficiency of (PEA)2PbBr4:Mn quantum dot nanolayers is approximately 5.7 μm / h, matching that of silicon carbide (≥5 μm / h). The removal efficiency of Cs3Cu2I5 quantum dot nanolayers is around 6.2 μm / h, matching that of gallium oxide (≥6 μm / h). The removal efficiency of (BTP)2MnBr4 quantum dot nanolayers is around 7.5 μm / h, close to that of alumina (6–8 μm / h). These results indicate that by precisely controlling the composition and microstructure of quantum dot nanolayers, the removal efficiency of quantum dot-doped polymer nanolayers can be directionally optimized, achieving a high degree of matching with the removal efficiency requirements of different high-hardness semiconductor materials.
[0079] like Figure 9 The figure shows the (PEA)2PbBr4:Mn@PMMA / PVA / SEBS quantum dot nanolayer uniformly coated on the surface of a 120 mm diameter silicon carbide wafer prepared in Example 5. The entire surface was then modified and removed using an ion beam. The resulting image shows the surface morphology of the silicon carbide wafer after polishing. As can be seen from the figure, the surface shape accuracy of the silicon carbide wafer converged to 7.63 nm RMS, and the surface roughness was further reduced to 0.21 nm RMS. This demonstrates that the quantum dot nanolayer provided by this invention achieves high-precision, ultra-smooth polishing of semiconductor wafers, effectively improving removal efficiency and significantly enhancing surface processing quality.
[0080] like Figure 10 The figure shows the variation of surface roughness of diamond with in-situ grown quantum dot nanolayers prepared in Example 1 as a function of processing time. As can be seen from the figure, the surface roughness of the diamond gradually decreases with increasing processing time, from approximately 4500 nm initially to 1634 nm, indicating that the quantum dot nanolayers can significantly improve the surface modification effect. Further observation from the RMS rate of change plot shows that the rate of change tends to stabilize with increasing processing time, indicating that the diamond surface polishing process gradually enters a stable removal stage with the assistance of quantum dots. Furthermore, this method effectively reduces the cost of diamond processing, decreasing it by more than 70% from the original cost of >$500 / hour. These results demonstrate that the in-situ growth method of quantum dot nanolayers provided by this invention can not only effectively reduce the macroscopic roughness of the diamond surface but also achieve stable and controllable processing.
[0081] In summary, this invention, by controlling the composition and structural parameters of quantum dots, grows them in situ on the surface of semiconductor wafers as sacrificial layers, achieving a high degree of matching with the removal efficiency of the target semiconductor wafer. This significantly improves the stability and processing quality of the polishing process, effectively reduces surface roughness, lowers processing costs, and meets the fine processing needs of different types of high-hardness semiconductor materials. It fully demonstrates the application potential and industrialization value of this invention in the field of high-precision semiconductor wafer processing.
