Abstract

1403913 Semi-conductor devices OMRON TATEISI ELECTRONICS CO 9 Nov 1972 [10 Nov 1971 10 March 1972] 51836/72 Heading H1K A rectifying interface in a diode is formed between a semi-conductor body and a layer of tin oxide separated from it by a layer of insulation 15-500 Š thick. Suitable materials are silicon, germanium and gallium arsenide for the body and silica, silicon nitride and germanium oxide for the insulation layer. The embodiment is based on a monocrystalline wafer of 1 ohm. cm. N type silicon 200 Á thick. After washing in dilute hydrofluoric acid to remove or render uniform any surface oxide the wafer is heated at 520‹ C. on a quartz substrate in a flowing mixture of water vapour and an oxidizing gas, e.g. air or oxygen, typically for 5 minutes, to form a 20 Š thick silica layer, and then in a mixture of dimethyl tin and inert gas to deposit tin oxide the conductivity of which may be improved by including antimony trichloride in the mixture, to which water vapour may also be added to speed up the deposition. If a P type silicon wafer is used deposition is effected at a higher temperature or the deposit subsequently heat treated. A passivated device is provided by forming the silica in an aperture in a thicker layer on to which the tin oxide extends. Contact electrodes are deposited on the wafer and the tin oxide. The rectifying characteristics are compared with those of devices in which the silica layer is absent or not intentionally formed. The reverse breakdown voltage is higher and shows less variation between devices. In addition the device is photoresponsive and the dependence of this response on the thickness of the silica layer is discussed.
