Description

Rapid quantitative imaging characterization method for life space distribution of semiconductor wafer excess carriers
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of semiconductor material characteristic detection, in particular to a non-contact, nondestructive and quantitative imaging optical characterization method for service life spatial distribution of excess carriers of a semiconductor wafer.
Background
The development of semiconductor materials and device science began in the fifties of the last century, and at almost the same time, methods for carrier lifetime characterization have received much attention and continued to date. Two groups of which carrier lifetime is of most concern are in the field of microelectronic and photovoltaic energy. The carrier lifetime is one of the most sensitive parameters reflecting the purity, defects, impurities, interface states, etc. of electronic materials, and directly determines the performance of devices. There has been no other method to date that can probe 10 at room temperature, as is the case for carrier lifetime measurements9~1011cm–3Such low concentrations of defects or impurities and in principle without minimum limitations. Carrier lifetime and related carrier diffusion length measurements have become routine routines today in the integrated circuit industry from raw material preparation to device development and production, playing the role of process cleaning monitoring, although carrier lifetime itself has little direct impact on unipolar MOS device performance.
The carrier life measuring technology based on the optical detection method has the advantages of non-contact, no damage, no pollution, rapidness and the like, and becomes a new generation of detection technology with key development in the field of characterization of the current semiconductor carrier recombination and transport characteristics. Among the optical detection techniques applied to the field of semiconductor material characteristic detection, the Photoluminescence (Photoluminescence) technique is known to be capable of measuring the excess carrier recombination and transport performance, including measurement of excess carrier transport parameters such as bulk recombination lifetime, mobility, diffusion coefficient, surface recombination rate, and the like. In the process of realizing the measurement of the excess carrier recombination and transport parameters, the photoluminescence technology usually adopts a mode of excitation light intensity modulation, fluorescence signals (generally in a near infrared band) generated by radiation recombination of excited excess carriers in a sample carry the same frequency components, a phase-locked amplifier is used for demodulating the amplitude and phase under the frequency, data of which the amplitude and phase change along with the frequency is obtained by scanning from low frequency to high frequency through modulating the frequency, and the excess carrier recombination and transport parameters are extracted from the data. However, for the current trend that the size of a semiconductor substrate is increasing (16 inches of wafers are becoming mainstream gradually), the traditional Photoluminescence (Photoluminescence) technology based on single-point detection can only perform local spot inspection of the service life of the surplus carriers, and cannot perform full-coverage scanning measurement on the whole large-size wafer, and if a point-by-point scanning mode is adopted to realize imaging, the time consumption is too long, and online quick inspection cannot be realized.
The invention provides a method for replacing a single-point detector in the traditional photoluminescence carrier life measuring technology by using a CCD (charge coupled device), and develops the photoluminescence imaging based on the CCD from a qualitative imaging technology into a quantitative imaging method, wherein the numerical value of each pixel point in an image has absolute physical significance and dimension, namely the equivalent life of the surplus carrier of a semiconductor wafer. The qualitative to quantitative measurement is realized by a phase-locked imaging principle, namely, a CCD carries out strictly synchronous sampling shooting on a dynamic image of a modulated fluorescent signal emitted from a wafer, and a phase lag image of the dynamic fluorescent image relative to a same-frequency reference signal is obtained after signal processing, so that a quantitative equivalent life image of an excess carrier is obtained.
Disclosure of Invention
The invention provides a rapid quantitative imaging characterization method for spatial distribution of service life of excess carriers of a semiconductor wafer, which comprises a function generator 1, an excitation laser 2, a collimation and beam expansion system 3, a wafer sample 4 to be characterized, a fluorescence imaging CCD5, a long-pass filter 6 and a computer 7, and is characterized in that:
the signal generated by the function generator 1 is used for modulating the laser 2 to emit laser with light intensity changing in a sine way along with time, the laser passes through the beam collimation and beam expansion system 3 to form a large light spot with uniformly distributed light intensity to be incident on a semiconductor wafer sample 4, excess carriers with concentration changing in a sine way along with time are generated in the semiconductor wafer sample, the excess carriers are sampled and shot by a CCD5 through a dynamic image of a same-frequency sine fluorescence signal emitted by radiation recombination, a long pass filter 6 placed in front of a CCD5 lens filters excitation light emitted by the laser 2 and allows fluorescence to enter a CCD5, the shot dynamic image data are transmitted to a computer 7 with a frame grabber, the laser modulation signal is used as a reference signal, and the computer 7 performs digital phase-locking operation on discrete time domain data of all pixel points of the CCD5 to extract a phase image from noise; quantitative spatial distribution of the wafer excess carrier lifetime can be obtained by analyzing the phase image.
The frequency of the modulation signal generated by the function generator 1 should be low frequency, that is, quasi-steady state approximation ω τ <1 is satisfied, where ω is light intensity modulation angular frequency, τ is equivalent carrier lifetime of the silicon wafer to be measured, and meanwhile, the direct current component of the modulation signal should be much larger than the alternating current component, so that the laser light intensity is a small alternating current signal superimposed on a large direct current background.
The photon energy of the laser emitted by the laser 2 is larger than the forbidden bandwidth of the semiconductor wafer material to be tested, so that the excess carriers can be excited; meanwhile, the optical power of the laser should be high enough, the excitation light intensity of the whole wafer after the light spot expands the beam meets the requirement of carrier injection dosage, and the dosage requirement is determined by specific representation requirements.
After the laser beam emitted from the laser 2 passes through the collimation and beam expansion system 3, large-size light spots with uniformly distributed light intensity are formed, so that uniform excitation on a semiconductor wafer sample can be realized, namely the incident light intensity at each position of the wafer is consistent.
The photosensitive waveband of the CCD5 is selected as the fluorescent waveband of the semiconductor to be detected, generally the near-infrared CCD, and the CCD5 is placed on the back of the wafer, namely the other side where the excitation light is located, so that the reflected light of the front surface of the wafer to the excitation light cannot reach the CCD5, and the long-pass filter 6 placed in front of the CCD5 can further filter the stray excitation light, so as to ensure that the image shot by the CCD is a pure fluorescent image.
The CCD5 has the function of external trigger, the frame rate is adjustable, and the Nyquist sampling theorem is satisfied, i.e. the frame rate is more than twice of the laser modulation frequency, the shooting trigger sequence signal of the CCD5 is generated by the computer 7, and the synchronous control of the whole system is realized by the computer 7.
The overall duration of the image sequence obtained by the CCD5 should be an integral multiple of the laser modulation period, and in general, this condition is naturally satisfied when the laser modulation frequency is set to an integral multiple of 1Hz and the overall duration of the image sequence is selected to be an integral multiple of 1 s.
The computer 7 uses the laser modulation signal as a reference signal to perform digital phase-locking operation on the discrete time domain signal of each pixel point of the image sequence, and the phase value of each pixel point obtained thereby constitutes a phase-locked phase image of the wafer at the adjustment frequency, where the phase is understood as the phase lag of the fluorescent signal relative to the same-frequency reference signal.
