Abstract

889,872. Semi-conductor treatment. SARKES TARZIAN Inc. March 5, 1958 [April 24, 1957], No. 7135/58. Drawings to Specification. Class 37. A method of treating the exposed boundary of a PN junction in a semi-conductor to improve reverse current resistivity, comprises immersing the junction in a dilute aqueous solution of an inorganic material, alkaline or basic in nature, containing a wetting agent. The treatment is preferably carried out at the boiling temperature of the aqueous solution, at which temperature the reaction is complete in a minute or less. Lower temperatures may be used if extended time is allowed. Solutions referred to include those of basic salts such as sodium carbonate, sodium bicarbonate, potassium carbonate, sodium acetate, sodium metasilicate, and other salts of alkaline earth and alkali metals which in dilute solutions (i.e. concentrations of 1 to 15%) produce aqueous solutions having pH values of 10-12 or higher. Dilute solutions of sodium or potassium hydroxide are also said to be satisfactory. The solution should also contain from ¢ to 3% of a wetting agent such as trisodium phosphate or an alkali metal salt of a detergent sulfonate or a non.-ionic wetting agent such as polyoxyethylene derivatives of hexitol anhydride or long chain fatty acid partial esters of hexitol anhydride. Examples quoted. Silicon plates with a dot of an alloy of aluminium, tin and gallium fused to the surface to form a PN junction are etched in caustic soda, and then in nitric acid, washed and then treated by immersion, either for 3 seconds in a boiling aqueous solution containing 15% by weight of sodium carbonate and 1% of sodium triphosphate, or for 30 seconds in a 2% aqueous solution of sodium hydroxide with 0.5% of polyethylene polypropylene oxide at 60‹ C., the junctions so treated are then washed in pure water and dried at 150‹ C.
