The monthly reference to Fig. 1 shows the relationship between the thickness of the film layer formed by the conventional method and the thickness of the wafer.

As shown in Figure i, the film thickness of the crystal edge and the film thickness of the central region may differ by angstroms (angst_). Thicker crystal edges not only affect the process, but also many edge defects near the edge of the wafer. The two sides, the lack of this can be met! ^ The subsequent process is carried out, so that the subsequent device or structure is also defective. For the contact reduction process, when the contact window is formed, the film thickness of the crystal edge is deep, so the contact window at the crystal edge is insufficiently etched, so that the contact plug is made. It does not electrically connect to the underlying components and forms a GSP defect. On the other hand, edge defects near the edge of the wafer may directly affect the subsequent engraving process or other deposition processes. For example, when the film thickness at the edge of the crystal is deeper, the etching process usually produces more undesired tuberculosis ( Nodule) phenomenon. In view of this, the conventional film layer manufacturing method may cause the product wafer to be difficult to pass the wafer "Twafer acceptance test (WAT) to reduce the yield (a glimpse), 201001512 still to be improved . How to make a film with good thickness and surface miscellaneous is one of the major issues in this field.
