Summary of the invention
The technical problem to be solved in the present invention provides a kind ofly with low cost makes transistorized method with the thin single crystal silicon chip, and adopting this method to make transistor, to have a technology cost low, and the silicon chip internal flaw is few in the course of processing, thereby guarantees the characteristics of transistor performance.
In order to solve the problems of the technologies described above, the invention provides a kind of method with making transistor with silicon single crystal thin section, in turn include the following steps:
1), select 2 lightly doped polished silicon slices for use, the front of every polished silicon slice is a burnishing surface;
2), above-mentioned every silicon chip all carries out N+ or P+ pre-expansion, the front of the polished silicon slice after pre-expansion is provided with oxide layer then;
3), make above-mentioned 2 polished silicon slice fronts that have an oxide layer in twos over against after carry out the room temperature bonding, the bonding silicon chip group; Above-mentioned bonding silicon chip group is put into carries out high-temperature process in the high temperature furnace, silicon chip group after the high-temperature process;
4), mechanical lapping and polishing are carried out in two surfaces of silicon chip group after the high-temperature process;
5), adopt conventional semiconductor planar technology to make transistor chip respectively on two surfaces of step 4) gained silicon chip group, the photoresist of anticorrosive usefulness is set respectively on above-mentioned silicon chip group two surfaces that have transistor chip respectively then;

7), with the surface metalation of not establishing transistor chip of silicon chip, remove photoresist, scribing and encapsulation then; Get transistor.
In the present invention, resistivity is at 1 ohm. and more than centimetre is light dope, and resistivity is at 1 ohm. and below centimetre is heavy doping.
Improvement as the method with making transistor with silicon single crystal thin section of the present invention: the thickness of oxide layer that is positioned at the polished silicon slice front step 2) is 0.5um~3um, surface roughness≤0.8nm and was 0 (promptly not having the above particle of 0.5um) greater than the particle of 0.5um.The method that oxide layer is set is a thermal oxidation method.
Because after oxide layer is set, can worsen as the roughness on the burnishing surface surface in polished silicon slice front, when roughness during, need carry out chemico-mechanical polishing to the oxide layer in polished silicon slice front greater than 0.8nm, make its surface roughness≤0.8nm; Want the amount of skimming of strict control chemico-mechanical polishing, promptly satisfying under the prerequisite of above-mentioned surface roughness, the amount of skimming of chemico-mechanical polishing is the smaller the better; Must can not polish the whole oxide layer that is positioned at the polished silicon slice front, otherwise can cause subsequent step 6) silicon chip can not separate.
As the further improvements in methods with making transistor with silicon single crystal thin section of the present invention: step 3) high-temperature process temperature is 900~1290 ℃, and the time is 10 minutes~100 hours.
As the further improvements in methods with making transistor with silicon single crystal thin section of the present invention: step 4) to high-temperature process after two surfaces of silicon chip group carry out mechanical lapping and polishing, each surperficial removal amount is 30~100um, and each surface roughness≤1.2nm.
As the further improvements in methods with making transistor with silicon single crystal thin section of the present invention: the weight percent concentration of HF solution is 10%~50% in the step 6).
Method with making transistor with silicon single crystal thin section of the present invention, be that a kind of elder generation carries out the phosphorus pre-expansion with polished silicon slice, and then two silicon wafer polishing faces (front) are carried out bonding relatively reinforce, again the two sides of bonding silicon chip group is ground and polishing, carry out planar device technology then, carry out the transistorized method of manufacturing of the back side (promptly not establishing that surface of transistor chip) metallization and scribing encapsulation after afterwards silicon chip being separated.
In the present invention:
1, step 1): the original thickness of polished silicon slice is 150~350um, and diameter is 2~12 inches (inch); As bonding face, the reverse side of polished silicon slice can be abradant surface, erosional surface or burnishing surface with the front of polished silicon slice.
2, in step 2) in, because that oxidated layer thickness and the silicon chip of subsequent step separate is relevant, the thick more silicon chip that helps the back more of oxidated layer thickness separates; But the simultaneous oxidation layer thickness is thick more, and the cost of oxidation also can correspondingly increase.Therefore, the preferred 1um~6um of bonded layer place thickness of oxide layer (i.e. 2 oxidated layer thickness sums).
3, the bonding method of step 3) is conventional silicon chip room temperature Direct Bonding method, and bonding zone air cleaning grade is≤10 grades.
Two surfaces of silicon chip group are polished, and the form that can adopt two throwing machines to carry out twin polishing perhaps adopts single throwing machine that the two sides is polished separately, thereby makes two bites at a cherry this step of polishing.
The method of making transistor with silicon single crystal thin section of the present invention has the following advantages:
1) saves the silicon material;
2) the technology cost is low relatively, has reduced the long-time high-temperature process time;
3) greatly reduce because the defective that interfacial stress causes can improve device performance.
