Description

SUSCEPTOR AND EPITAXIAL REACTOR INCLUSING THE SAME [0002]

The present invention relates to a susceptor and an epitaxial reactor including the same, and more particularly, to a susceptor for improving resistivity uniformity of a wafer and an epitaxial reactor including the susceptor.

Generally, the process of preparing a wafer for a device process comprises manufacturing a silicon ingot and sawing the produced silicon ingot with individual silicon wafers. And then subjected to several processing steps including lapping, grinding, etching and polishing of the so-formed silicon wafers followed by a front face or front and back faces, Thereby forming a wafer having this mirror gloss. And a silicon thin film is grown on the wafer surface by an epitaxial deposition process to prepare a final wafer for device processing.

In general, the epitaxial deposition process is divided into two stages.

In the first prebake step, a silicon wafer is loaded into the deposition chamber and dropped onto the susceptor. Then, the surface of the silicon wafer is pre-baked at a predetermined temperature (for example, 1000 to 1150 ° C) in a state where a cleaning gas such as hydrogen or a mixed gas of hydrogen and hydrogen chloride is applied to the surface of the silicon wafer to clean the surface of the silicon wafer .

In the epitaxial growth process as the second step, a silicon vapor source such as silane or trichlorosilane is applied to the surface of the silicon wafer and the wafer is heated at a predetermined temperature (for example, 800 ° C.) A silicon layer is grown on the surface.

During such high temperature pre-bake and epitaxial growth processes, dopant atoms such as boron or phosphorus are emitted from the back (e.g., backside) of the silicon wafer. In general, the dopant atoms emitted from the back surface of a silicon wafer are emitted to the front surface (e.g., front surface) of the silicon wafer through a gap between a silicon wafer edge and a susceptor. And the diffused dopant atoms are incorporated into the deposition layer growing on the entire surface of the silicon wafer to contaminate the deposition layer and lower the resistivity or resistivity near the edge of the silicon wafer. This is called auto-doping.

Figure 1 is a schematic plan view of an epitaxial reactor according to one embodiment of the present invention. In particular, the epitaxial reactor shown in FIG. 1 is a reactor that performs an epitaxial growth process on a wafer having a diameter of 300 mm or more. 2 is a schematic side cross-sectional view of a susceptor according to the prior art.

As shown in FIG. 1, the epitaxial reactor includes a susceptor on which a wafer is mounted, a central gas supply unit disposed on a side surface of the susceptor and supplying a reaction gas to a central portion of the wafer, A peripheral gas supply unit disposed on both sides of the central gas supply unit for supplying a reaction gas to an edge portion of the wafer, a plurality of lamps arranged radially on the central gas supply unit and the peripheral gas supply unit, And a heating lamp unit.

And, as shown in Fig. 2, the susceptor according to the prior art has a mounting portion on which the wafer is mounted and a back surface made in a plane.

Fig. 3 shows the resistivity distribution of a wafer produced by an epitaxial reactor including a susceptor according to the prior art shown in Fig. 2. Fig. Specifically, the resistivity distribution graph of FIG. 3 measures the resistivity with temperature at a plurality of points located on a horizontal line (that is, a line across the diameter of the wafer) passing through the center of the wafer.

As shown in Fig. 3, the wafers manufactured by the epitaxial reactor and the susceptor according to the prior art exhibit a resistivity higher than the average resistivity of the entire wafer near the half of the radius of the wafer, There is a problem that the resistivity is lower than the average resistivity of the entire wafer and the resistivity at the edge portion of the wafer located on both upper and lower sides of the central portion of the wafer is lower than the average resistivity of the entire wafer.

The causes of such unevenness of resistivity are as follows.

The vicinity of a half of the radius of the wafer is a section in which the flow of the reaction gas supplied from the central gas supply unit and the flow of the reaction gas supplied from the peripheral gas supply unit are overlapped and the thin film thickness of the wafer, So that the resistivity of the wafer is higher than the resistivity of the wafer. Further, the central portion of the wafer is heated to a higher temperature than other regions of the wafer during epitaxial growth due to the lamps arranged to radiate heat to the center portion of the susceptor, the outer circumferential surface of the susceptor being radially arranged, The average thickness of the wafer is increased, and as a result, the resistivity of the wafer is lower than the resistivity of the wafer. In addition, the edge portion of the wafer is also lower in resistivity than the average resistivity of the entire wafer due to the automatic doping phenomenon.
