Embodiment
Below in conjunction with accompanying drawing, the present invention will be further described.
The equipment using in high temperature annealing silicon chip preparation process is the A412 type high-temperature annealing furnace of sophisticated semiconductor Materials Co., Ltd (ASM), load silicon chip with silicon carbide boat (SIC-BAOT) and carborundum ring (SIC-RING), maximum slide glass amount is 90.Silicon chip used is P type <110> monocrystalline, and diameter is 300mm, and resistivity is 8-12 Ω/cm.The measuring method of resistivity is capacitance-voltage method (C-V) and spreading resistance method (SRP).Surface particles and surperficial haze value (Haze) are measured with surface scan instrument (SP1), SP1 point defects (LPD) represents the particle of silicon chip surface, and the point defect that cannot wash off (LPD-N) represents crystal primary partical defect (COP).
As shown in Figure 3, step of the present invention (1) is that cleaned silicon chip is packed in annealing furnace, then in Ar atmosphere, is incubated 30min, and main purpose is to purge to reduce the oxygen level in boiler tube by Ar, prevents at next step logical H 2in time, causes danger; Also make the temperature of whole silicon chip be consistent, prevent from producing slip line in next step temperature-rise period simultaneously.Step (2) is at H 2with in the mixed atmosphere of Ar, be warmed up to 1000 ℃ with 3~5 ℃/min.Object is to remove the natural oxide film of silicon chip surface.The boiler tube of annealing furnace, adjacent silicon chip, silicon carbide boat all may discharge boron atom to silicon chip surface, are then adsorbed by the natural oxidizing layer of silicon chip surface, go in just may being diffused into silicon chip in the time of high temperature, cause resistivity decreased.Therefore,, in order to keep the consistence of resistivity, must first remove the natural oxide film of silicon chip surface.So by H 2be passed in boiler tube, for security consideration H 2with the throughput ratio of Ar be 4% because H 2limits of explosion be 4%~70%.H 2at high temperature can with the natural oxide film (SiO of silicon chip surface 2) occur to react as follows:
H 2+SiO 2→SiO↑+H 2O↑
Along with the carrying out of reaction, the boron atom in oxide film has also been brought in annealing atmosphere and has eliminated, and the resistivity of silicon chip surface has also just kept consistence.H 2and SiO 2the minimum temperature of reaction be 850 ℃, but experiment finds that in temperature oxide film cannot all be removed during lower than 1000 ℃, the resistance value of silicon chip surface can reduce.Fig. 4 is the resistivity changes with depth figure while being warmed up to 950 ℃ with 5 ℃/min.Can find out that technique finishes rear surface resistance and reduces.It should be noted that temperature rise rate has a great impact the elimination of oxide film.If temperature rise rate is too fast, can cause the variation that center and peripheral resistance is very large.Fig. 5 is that heat-up rate is that 10 ℃/min is warmed up to 1000 ℃, and the center and peripheral resistivity after technique completes, with the variation of the degree of depth, can find out that edge resistivity raises than centre very large.Experimental results show that when heat-up rate remains on 3~5 ℃/min, can guarantee that resistance has good homogeneity.Heat-up rate is slower in theory, and the temperature at silicon chip edge and center is more approaching, H 2and SiO 2chemical reaction carry out also more even, silicon chip edge and center resistance consistence are also better.Fig. 6 is speed while being 3 ℃/min, and resistivity is with the distribution plan of the degree of depth.The resistivity that can find out silicon chip center and peripheral has all kept good consistence on depth direction.Fig. 7 is the measuring result of spreading resistance.Due to the limitation of capacitance-voltage method (C-V method) itself, resistance that cannot Measurement accuracy silicon chip surface 1 μ m place, therefore needs to measure with spreading resistance method (SRP method).Can find out from test result, silicon chip surface is basically identical to inner resistance.
Step of the present invention (3) is that protective atmosphere is become to Ar, then temperature is raised to 1200 ℃ and be incubated 1h.The main purpose of this step is the surperficial microroughness of eliminating the crystal primary partical defect (COP) of silicon chip surface and reducing silicon chip.The inwall of crystal primary partical defect (COP) has layer oxide film, under hot environment, oxide film is decomposed into interstitial oxygen concentration and is diffused into outside silicon chip, the only remaining cavity being formed by room, then will be filled in these cavities and these cavities are filled and led up from gap Siliciumatom, crystal primary partical defect (COP) disappears thereupon.At high temperature, what the atom of silicon chip surface can be spontaneous is diffused into from the high place of energy the place that energy is low simultaneously, flow to surperficial " pit " and goes from " projection " on surface, makes surface become smooth, has reduced surperficial microroughness.Step (4) is final step of the present invention, and after insulation finishes, under pure Ar atmosphere, reducing the temperature to 650 ℃, to go out boat cooling, unloading silicon chip.
Fig. 8 is the grain value of utilizing surface scan instrument SP1 to measure before and after polished section annealing, can find out through the crystal primary partical defect (COP) of pyroprocessing rear panel sub-surface and all be eliminated, and the quantity of surface particles has also had obvious minimizing.Fig. 9 is silicon chip surface haze value (Haze) before and after processing with the present invention, the mean value of the annealed rear surface of silicon chip haze value (Haze) has reduced by 52.6%, peak reduction 70.7%, absolutely prove that the present invention has improved the surface quality of silicon chip.
In sum, adopt the present invention not only can prepare high-quality silicon substrate material, and can not bring additional undesirable action, do not need to increase unnecessary operation, not only improved production efficiency but also reduced cost, be suitable for batch production.
