Description

シリコンを含有するワイドギャップ半導体は非常に特異的な特性を示すため、太陽電池材料や熱電変換材料等の環境エネルギー分野で広く利用されている。中でも、バリウム(Ba)とシリコン(Si)からなる珪化バリウムは、BaSi組成でバンドギャップが1.3eVと、シリコンの1.1eVよりも大きいため、注目されている。(例えば、非特許文献1)さらにSrを添加することでバンドギャップを1.4eVまで調整する事が可能である(例えば、特許文献1、非特許文献2参照)。 Wide-gap semiconductors containing silicon are widely used in the field of environmental energy such as solar cell materials and thermoelectric conversion materials because they exhibit very specific characteristics. Among them, barium silicide composed of barium (Ba) and silicon (Si) has attracted attention because it has a BaSi 2 composition and a band gap of 1.3 eV, which is larger than 1.1 eV of silicon. (For example, Non-Patent Document 1) It is possible to adjust the band gap to 1.4 eV by adding Sr (see, for example, Patent Document 1 and Non-Patent Document 2).

珪化バリウムの利用形態としては、膜として用いることが有効である。例えば、特許文献2にはn型とn+型珪化バリウム膜を積層した太陽電池がその例として挙げられている。膜の作製方法として以前より知られているのはシリコン(111)上へMBE法(分子線エピタキシー法)にて製膜する方法で、各元素を精密に製膜することが可能であるが、製膜速度が遅く、特殊な装置であることから、量産には向いていない。そこで、量産向きの膜の作製方法が求められる。また、利用する基板についてもより安価な酸化ケイ素系基板の利用が求められている。   It is effective to use it as a film as a utilization form of barium silicide. For example, Patent Document 2 discloses a solar cell in which an n-type and an n + -type barium silicide film are stacked. As a method for producing a film, a method of forming a film on silicon (111) by MBE method (molecular beam epitaxy method) can be used to precisely form each element. Since the film forming speed is slow and it is a special device, it is not suitable for mass production. Therefore, a method for manufacturing a film suitable for mass production is required. Further, the use of a cheaper silicon oxide substrate is also demanded for the substrate to be used.

量産に向いている膜の作製製法としてスパッタ法が挙げられる。スパッタリング法は陰極に設置したターゲットにArイオンなどの正イオンを物理的に衝突させ、その衝突エネルギーでターゲットを構成する材料を放出させて、対面に設置した基板上にターゲット材料とほぼ同組成の膜を堆積する方法であり、直流スパッタリング法(DCスパッタリング法)と高周波スパッタリング法(RFスパッタリング法)がある。この方法を用いることで、例えばMBE法では困難な大面積への高速製膜が可能となる。   A sputtering method is an example of a method for producing a film suitable for mass production. In the sputtering method, positive ions such as Ar ions are physically collided with the target placed on the cathode, and the material constituting the target is released by the collision energy, and the target material is almost the same composition as the target material on the substrate placed on the opposite side. This is a method for depositing a film, and includes a direct current sputtering method (DC sputtering method) and a high frequency sputtering method (RF sputtering method). By using this method, high-speed film formation on a large area, which is difficult with the MBE method, for example, becomes possible.

特許文献3には、スパッタ法にて珪化バリウム膜を製膜した例が報告されているが、スパッタ法を用いた珪化バリウム膜に関して詳細な検討は行われていない。   Patent Document 3 reports an example in which a barium silicide film is formed by a sputtering method, but no detailed examination has been made on a barium silicide film using a sputtering method.

本発明の珪化バリウム膜は、膜が均質であることから半導体として好適であり、太陽電池などに代表される半導体デバイスに使用することができる。   The barium silicide film of the present invention is suitable as a semiconductor because the film is homogeneous, and can be used for semiconductor devices represented by solar cells and the like.

以下、本発明を詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail.

本発明の珪化バリウム薄膜は薄膜中の珪素の組成ずれが20%以下と均一であることを特徴とする。その組成分布の測定はEPMA(電子線マイクロアナライザー)等、元素の面分布を測定可能な分析手法を用いることで測定することができる。測定視野としては45μm四方以上の視野について面分析をすることが望ましい。珪素の組成分布が均一であるということはすなわち、膜組織が均一であることを示し、それにより、不均一組織と比較し高い光学特性や電気特性を得られる。   The barium silicide thin film of the present invention is characterized in that the compositional deviation of silicon in the thin film is uniform at 20% or less. The composition distribution can be measured by using an analytical method capable of measuring the surface distribution of elements such as EPMA (electron beam microanalyzer). As a measurement visual field, it is desirable to perform surface analysis on a visual field of 45 μm square or more. The fact that the silicon composition distribution is uniform means that the film structure is uniform, whereby high optical characteristics and electrical characteristics can be obtained as compared with the non-uniform structure.

本願ではその測定方法として下記の方法を用いた。   In this application, the following method was used as the measuring method.

まず、EPMA等を用いて45μm四方の視野に対し、珪素に関する組成分布を測定する。その後3μm四方毎に珪素検出量の平均値を取ることで、45μm四方における、3μm四方の平均検出量が算出される。それぞれの平均算出量に対し、最大量A、最少量Bならびに225か所の全平均量Cから下記の計算により組成ずれ(%)を算出する。
組成ずれ(%)=(最大量A−最少量B)/全平均値C
また、光吸収特性や電気伝導性を向上させるためには、珪化バリウム膜は結晶化していることが好ましい。その結晶系はBaSi、特に斜方晶の組織であることが好ましい。その場合に珪素―バリウム系の半導体物性として最も高い性能を示す。
First, a composition distribution relating to silicon is measured for a visual field of 45 μm square using EPMA or the like. Thereafter, by taking the average value of the silicon detection amount every 3 μm square, the average detection amount of 3 μm square in 45 μm square is calculated. For each average calculation amount, the composition deviation (%) is calculated from the maximum amount A, the minimum amount B, and the total average amount C at 225 locations by the following calculation.
Composition deviation (%) = (maximum amount A−minimum amount B) / total average value C
In order to improve light absorption characteristics and electrical conductivity, the barium silicide film is preferably crystallized. The crystal system is preferably BaSi 2 , particularly an orthorhombic structure. In that case, it shows the highest performance as a silicon-barium semiconductor physical property.

その結晶性は高いことが好ましいが、結晶の柔軟性や硬度を高めるために結晶は多結晶構造であることが好ましい。   The crystallinity is preferably high, but the crystal preferably has a polycrystalline structure in order to increase the flexibility and hardness of the crystal.

さらに、製膜するための基板としては、コスト面などを重視するとシリコン系基板、さらには酸化ケイ素を主成分にする基板を用いることが好ましい。特にアルカリフリーガラスを利用することで、コストの低減が可能となる。   Furthermore, as a substrate for forming a film, it is preferable to use a silicon-based substrate and further a substrate containing silicon oxide as a main component in view of cost. In particular, the cost can be reduced by using alkali-free glass.

また、本発明の珪化バリウム膜は、生産性、製造コストの観点からスパッタ法による製膜が好ましい。MBE法に代表される方法はエピタキシー成長させるために、基板の面方位、格子定数に成長膜が左右され、利用可能な基板が限定される。例えば珪化バリウム系膜において、BaSi結晶を析出させるためにはSi(111)、(100)面をもつ基板を用いる必要がある。それに対し、スパッタ法ではスパッタリングターゲットより発生する高エネルギーBaもしくはSi粒子を利用していることから、基板配向面によらず結晶性の珪化バリウム膜を作製することが可能な手法となる。 The barium silicide film of the present invention is preferably formed by sputtering from the viewpoint of productivity and manufacturing cost. In the method represented by the MBE method, the growth film depends on the plane orientation and the lattice constant of the substrate for epitaxy growth, and the usable substrates are limited. For example, in a barium silicide-based film, it is necessary to use a substrate having Si (111) and (100) planes in order to precipitate BaSi 2 crystals. On the other hand, since the high energy Ba or Si particles generated from the sputtering target are used in the sputtering method, a crystalline barium silicide film can be produced regardless of the substrate orientation plane.

熱膨張率の点からも基板を選定することが好ましい。珪化バリウムの熱膨張率が約150×10−7/Kであるため、なるべくこれに近い基板を用いることが好ましく、石英ガラス(5.4×10−7/K)と比較すればシリコン(35.9×10−7/K)やアルカリフリーガラス(31.7×10−7/K)のような熱膨張率が10×10−7/K以上の基板が望ましい。 It is preferable to select the substrate also in terms of the coefficient of thermal expansion. Since the thermal expansion coefficient of barium silicide is about 150 × 10 −7 / K, it is preferable to use a substrate as close as possible to this, and silicon (35) compared to quartz glass (5.4 × 10 −7 / K). .9 × 10 −7 / K) or an alkali-free glass (31.7 × 10 −7 / K) and a substrate having a thermal expansion coefficient of 10 × 10 −7 / K or more is desirable.

本発明の珪化バリウム膜の製造方法について説明する。   The manufacturing method of the barium silicide film of the present invention will be described.

本発明の珪化バリウム膜の製造方法は、基板を加熱しながらスパッタ法を用いて製膜する。   In the method for producing a barium silicide film of the present invention, a film is formed by sputtering while heating the substrate.

珪化バリウム膜を作製するに当たり、室温製膜では結晶化させるためのエネルギーが不足するため、結晶性を持つ珪化バリウム系膜を作製することが難しい。そこで、結晶性を持つ珪化バリウム系膜を作製するため、基板を加温した状態で製膜する、加熱製膜を用いる。スパッタ法はターゲットより飛び出したBaやSi粒子が基板に衝突し、膜を形成するが、基板を加熱しておくことで、基板に到着した粒子が安定層へ移動し、結晶膜を形成しやすくなる。基板の加熱温度としては350℃から800℃が好ましい。アーク溶解法等による珪化バリウム塊合成の場合はより高温が必要だが、高エネルギー粒子にさらにエネルギーを付加する形となるため、より低い温度で結晶性膜を形成することが可能である。350℃未満では粒子の移動エネルギーが小さく結晶膜を形成することが困難であり、800℃より高温になると、バリウムと珪素が遊離を始めるために、珪化バリウムの結晶を維持できなくなる。加熱温度が450℃以上600℃以下だと、BaSiの斜方晶の珪化バリウムの結晶が主に析出し、更に半導体としての性能を高めることが可能となる。 In producing a barium silicide film, it is difficult to produce a barium silicide-based film having crystallinity because the energy for crystallization is insufficient in film formation at room temperature. Therefore, in order to produce a barium silicide-based film having crystallinity, heating film formation is used in which the substrate is formed in a heated state. In the sputtering method, Ba and Si particles popping out from the target collide with the substrate to form a film. However, by heating the substrate, the particles arriving at the substrate move to the stable layer and easily form a crystal film. Become. The heating temperature of the substrate is preferably 350 ° C. to 800 ° C. In the case of barium silicide ingot synthesis by the arc melting method or the like, a higher temperature is required. However, since energy is added to high energy particles, a crystalline film can be formed at a lower temperature. If the temperature is lower than 350 ° C., it is difficult to form a crystal film because the particle movement energy is small, and if the temperature is higher than 800 ° C., barium and silicon begin to be released, so that the crystal of barium silicide cannot be maintained. When the heating temperature is 450 ° C. or higher and 600 ° C. or lower, BaSi 2 orthorhombic barium silicide crystals are mainly precipitated, and the performance as a semiconductor can be further improved.

また、太陽電池用途を想定する場合において、その膜は厚い方が好ましくその厚みは500nm以上が好ましく、1000nm以上であることがより好ましい。膜の面積は15cm以上が好ましい。 In the case of assuming a solar cell application, the film is preferably thick, and the thickness is preferably 500 nm or more, and more preferably 1000 nm or more. The area of the film is preferably 15 cm 2 or more.
