Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] The present invention relates to an aminoalkoxydisilazane compound, a composition for vapor deposition of a silicon-containing thin film containing the same, and a method for producing a silicon-containing thin film using the same. [Background technology]
[0002] Silicon-containing thin films are essential materials in semiconductor manufacturing and are utilized in various forms, such as silicon films, silicon oxide films, silicon nitride films, silicon carbonitride films, and silicon oxynitride films. These thin films play an essential role in advanced electronic devices such as memory and logic chips, flat panel displays (TFT), and solar cells, and are used as semiconductor substrates, diffusion masks, oxidation prevention films, and dielectric films. In recent years, polycrystalline silicon thin films have been applied to various fields, such as solar cells, and their utilization has been increasing.
[0003] Various silicon precursors have been developed for the deposition of silicon-containing thin films, including traditional silicon precursors such as silane, disilane, and halogenated silanes, as well as aminosilanes and alkoxysilanes. Representative processes include chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD). ALD, in particular, is highly effective in forming ultrafine thin films with uniform thickness, making it essential for achieving the fine patterns of modern semiconductor devices. Furthermore, plasma-assisted deposition techniques (PECVD and PEALD) are considered important for the production of next-generation semiconductors and display devices because they can deposit thin films at low temperatures.
[0004] Recent ultra-fine semiconductor devices have rapidly become smaller and more highly integrated, which has led to increasingly stringent requirements for silicon precursors. Precursors must be stable and highly volatile at room temperature, not produce non-volatile by-products during thin film deposition, have excellent thermal stability and reactivity at high temperatures, and be easy to handle, transport, and store. Precursors with these properties are essential for depositing high-quality thin films.
[0005] With the development of ultra-highly integrated semiconductor devices, conventional precursors have limitations in forming uniform thin films at low temperatures, resulting in reduced productivity and problems with physical and electrical properties. Therefore, there is a need to develop new silicon precursors that enable fast and uniform deposition at low temperatures and have excellent physical properties.
