Definitions
- the present invention relates to techniques for semiconductor device manufacturing. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for improving device qualities by etching sidewalls of semiconductor devices formed on isolated mesas of a partitioned substrate.
- Solid-state light-emitting devices are expected to lead the next wave of illumination technologies.
- High-brightness light-emitting diodes HB-LEDs
- solid-state lasers continue to beam as the driving force in many critical technological fields, from optical data storage, to optical communication networks, and to medical applications.
- short wavelength light-emitting devices such as blue and UV LEDs and diode lasers.
- nitride-based LEDs and lasers e.g., GaN-based LEDs and lasers
- GaN-based LEDs and lasers not only extends the light-emission spectrum to the green, blue, and ultraviolet region, but also can achieve high light emission efficiency, low power consumption, and long operation lifetime.
- GaN-based single-crystal substrates however are not commercially available in large quantities. Consequently, other substrate materials, such as silicon (Si), sapphire (Al 2 O 3 ), gallium arsenide (GaAs), and silicon carbide (SiC), are often used as supporting substrates for epitaxial growth of GaN-based semiconductor devices.
- substrate materials such as silicon (Si), sapphire (Al 2 O 3 ), gallium arsenide (GaAs), and silicon carbide (SiC) are often used as supporting substrates for epitaxial growth of GaN-based semiconductor devices.
- the heterogeneity between the substrate and the semiconductor devices causes inevitable lattice-constant and thermal-expansion coefficient mismatches.
- qualities of these nitride-based semiconductor devices such as light emitting efficiency and reliability, can be significantly impacted by such mismatches.
- the above mismatches can result in high density of dislocations and large in-plane stresses in the epitaxial layers, which can
- a number of techniques have been introduced to effectively reduce the dislocation density due to the lattice-constant mismatch, for example, by using a buffer layer between the heterogeneous substrate and epitaxial semiconductor layers, or by using an epitaxial lateral overgrowth (ELOG) technique.
- ELOG epitaxial lateral overgrowth
- a recently proposed technique can effectively reduce in-plane stresses by “partitioning” a large wafer into individual independent platforms.
- partitioning the wafer is referred to the process of patterning and forming intersection trenches on the wafer surface without breaking the wafer.
- deep trenches are patterned and formed (e.g., by etching the substrate) on a flat substrate surface, which divide the substrate surface into isolated “islands” surrounded by trenches.
- semiconductor multilayer structures are fabricated on the partitioned substrate, and individual devices are formed on isolated single-unit platforms. Because the stress force is proportional to surface area, the stress in each isolated device is significantly reduced and limited.
- Each platform corresponds to a relatively confined area for film growth, and the boundaries of each platform can have deleterious effect on the multilayer structure near the boundary.
- One embodiment of the present invention provides a process for obtaining high-quality boundaries for individual multilayer structures which are fabricated on a trench-partitioned substrate.
- the process receives a trench-partitioned substrate wherein the substrate surface is partitioned into arrays of isolated deposition platforms which are separated by arrays of trenches.
- the process then forms a multilayer structure, which comprises a first doped layer, an active layer, and a second doped layer, on one of the deposition platforms.
- the process removes sidewalls of the multilayer structure.
- the process removes the sidewalls of the multilayer structure by etching the sidewalls using a dry etching process, a wet etching process, or a combined dry etching and wet etching process.
- the process prior to etching the sidewalls, the process protects non-boundary surface of the multilayer structure with a mask layer, thereby only exposing the boundary region of the multilayer structure to the subsequent etching process.
- the exposed boundary width is between 2 ⁇ m and 50 ⁇ m.
- the process controls the dry etching process to at least etch through the active layer of the multilayer structure, wherein the dry etching process is directed perpendicular to the multilayer structure.
- the dry etching process is an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) etching.
- ICP inductively coupled plasma
- the wet etching process uses a H 3 PO 4 based etchant.
- the H 3 PO 4 based etchant is heated to a temperature greater than 100° C.
- the process performs the etching process from the underside of the multiple structures by: (1) bonding a supporting structure to the topside of the multiple structures; (2) removing the trench-partitioned substrate to expose the underside of the multiple structures, wherein the multilayer structures are attached to the supporting structure; (3) patterning the underside of the multiple structures to expose undesirable boundary regions of the multiple structures; and (4) removing the sidewalls of the multiple structures corresponding to the undesirable boundary region.

- a conventional semiconductor wafer such as a silicon (Si) wafer
- Si silicon
- heterogeneous multilayer semiconductor structures such as a GaN blue LED
- stress in the multilayer structures arises from lattice-constant and thermal-expansion-coefficient mismatch between the substrate surface and the multilayer structures.
- stress typically increases with the surface area and thickness of the multilayer structure.
- the buildup of the stress can eventually lead to cracking of the multilayer structure, which makes it difficult to fabricate high-quality semiconductor devices.
- FIG. 1A illustrates a technique for stress relief during fabrication of multilayer structures on a substrate surface in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- a partial region 100 of a substrate surface is patterned (for example, using a photolithography technique) and partitioned with an intersecting trench structure 102 .
- Forming trench structure 102 can involve any now known or later developed techniques for making trenches on a substrate surface. These techniques can include, but is not limited to, dry etching techniques, wet etching techniques, and mechanical scraping techniques.
- Trench structure 102 divides up partial substrate 100 into arrays of isolated square platforms 104 , wherein each square platform is only a small portion of the original surface area. Typically, the size of each square platform is determined by the footprint of a single semiconductor device, such as an LED, or a diode laser. In one embodiment of the present invention, each platform has a dimension of approximately 100 ⁇ m to 3000 ⁇ m.
- alternative platform geometries can be formed by changing the patterns of trenches structure 102 .
- Some of these alternative geometries can include, but are not limited to: a triangle, a rectangle, a parallelogram, a hexagon, a circle, or other non-regular shapes.
- FIG. 1B illustrates a cross-sectional view of trench-partitioned substrate along a horizontal line AA′ in FIG. 1A in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- the sidewalls of intersecting trenches 102 effectively form the sidewalls of the isolated mesa structures, such as mesa 108 , and partial mesas 110 and 112 .
- Each mesa defines an independent surface area for growing a single semiconductor device.
- trench structure 102 is sufficiently deep so that multilayer structures formed on two adjacent mesas on each side of a trench are sufficiently uncoupled from each other.
- the depth of the trench can be 4 ⁇ m. In one embodiment, the depth of trench 102 is greater than twice of the multilayer structure thickness.
- FIG. 1C illustrates the cross-sectional view of FIG. 1B after forming isolated multilayer structures 114 - 118 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- multilayer structure 114 formed on mesa 108 is spatially uncoupled from adjacent multilayer structures 116 and 118 , which are also spatially uncoupled from their respective neighboring structures.
- each multilayer structure 114 - 118 corresponds to a single semiconductor device. Because the surface area of multilayer structure 114 is significantly smaller than partial substrate 100 , stress in multilayer structure 114 due to the mismatch with the substrate is also significantly reduced. Hence, the problems resulted from large stress in a non-partitioned substrate surface are effectively eliminated by patterning a substrate with deep trenches and by forming individual semiconductor devices on isolated deposition platforms.
- each multilayer structure is an In x Ga y Al 1-y N (0 ⁇ x ⁇ 1, 0 ⁇ y ⁇ 1) based light emitting device.
- a “GaN material” can generally include an In x Ga y Al 1-x-y N (0 ⁇ x ⁇ 1, 0 ⁇ y ⁇ 1) based compound, which can be a binary, ternary, or quaternary compound, such as GaN, InGaN, GaAlN, and InGaAlN.
- FIG. 2 illustrates an exemplary GaN-based LED structure 200 which corresponds to multilayer structure 114 in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- GaN LED 200 has an optional buffer layer 202 , which is epitaxially grown on Si mesa 108 for lattice-constant and/or thermal-expansion coefficient matching purposes.
- An n-type doped GaN layer 204 is then grown on buffer layer 202 .
- an InGaN/GaN multi-quantum-well (MQW) active layer 206 and a p-type doped GaN layer 208 are formed on n-type doped layer 204 .
- MQW InGaN/GaN multi-quantum-well
- Ohmic-contact layer 210 is formed on p-type doped layer 208 . Formation of Ohmic-contact layer 210 can use any chemical or physical vapor deposition method, such as electron-beam evaporation, filament evaporation, or sputter deposition. Ohmic-contact layer 210 can also be a reflective material with a reflectivity not less than 30%.
- growing multilayer structure 114 on mesa 108 is subject to “boundary effect.” More specifically, when depositing a layer in the multilayer structure, the deposition rate is more uniform in the central region of the platform but tends to increase towards the boundaries of the platform.
- outgrown multilayer structure can also form horizontally and wrap over the sidewalls of mesa 108 .
- multilayer structure 114 can curve over the boundaries and grow in the horizontal direction on the sidewalls of mesa 108 .
- an as-fabricated multilayer device 114 can have a highly uneven boundaries and outgrown sidewalls. If such a device is an LED device, the low-quality sidewalls can lead to significantly increase in leakage current, and a deteriorating electrostatic discharge (ESD) resistance.
- ESD electrostatic discharge
- FIGS. 3A-3C illustrate a process of removing low-quality boundaries of an multilayer structure in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- FIG. 3A illustrates the step of patterning an etch mask layer on each multilayer structure in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- etch mask layer 302 of predetermined thickness is patterned over each multilayer structures 304 , 306 (partially shown), and 308 (partially shown).
- etch mask 302 is designed to protect the high-quality region of the multilayer structure while exposing the low-quality boundary regions 310 of the multilayer structure.
- mask layer 302 is selective to withstand subsequent etching process, and therefore is chosen based on the type of etching process.
- the predetermined thickness of mask layer 302 is sufficiently thick to protect the high-quality regions through the etching process. In one embodiment, mask layer 302 has a thickness between 5 ⁇ m and 10 ⁇ m.
- the etching process is an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) dry etching process and etch mask layer 302 is made of silicon oxide (SiO 2 ).
- a SiO 2 layer of predetermined thickness is deposited over the multilayer structure surfaces.
- a photo-resist (PR) layer is spin-coated over the SiO 2 layer.
- PR photo-resist
- This PR layer is then patterned and a PR mask similar to etch mask 302 is obtained.
- the SiO 2 layer is patterned and the PR layer is subsequently removed.
- the SiO 2 mask is then used to protect the high-quality regions of multilayer structures in the subsequent ICP process.
- FIG. 3B illustrates the resulting multilayer structures after removing low-quality boundaries 310 of the multilayer structures in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- new boundaries 312 of multilayer structure 304 are substantially defined by the boundaries of mask layer 302 .
- Low-quality regions 310 and outgrown structure on the sidewalls of growth mesa of multilayer structure 302 are etched away.
- Removing low-quality regions 310 can be implemented by using dry etching, wet etching, or a combined dry etching/wet etching process.
- a dry etching process is typically anisotropic and the resulting sidewalls of multilayer structure 314 are substantially vertical (as shown in FIG. 2B ).
- the etching process is typically isotropic, and the resulting sidewalls of multilayer structure 314 may be undercut to a certain distance under mask layer 302 .
- a wet etching process typically has a higher etch rate than using a dry etching process.
- the etching process may not need to completely go through multilayer stack 200 .
- the etching process only needs to etch through p-type layer 208 and active layer 206 , while n-type layer 204 and buffer layer 202 are not etched.
- the inset of FIG. 3B illustrates such a partially etched GaN LED structure.
- FIG. 3C illustrates the final multilayer structures after mask layer 302 is liftoff in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- the new boundaries of multilayer structures are high-quality boundaries free of defects and hence are not susceptible to leakage current or ESD problems.
- the above described etching process is followed by depositing an insulating layer over the structures wherein the insulation layer also covers the sidewalls of the multilayer structures.
- an insulating layer can help protecting the sidewalls of the multilayer structures from being shorted by subsequent metal deposition processes, such as to form electrodes for the multilayer structures.
- a conventional substrate is patterned and etched to form square individual deposition platforms.
- Each square deposition platform has a size of 285 ⁇ m ⁇ 285 ⁇ m.
- the trench structure that partitioned the substrate has a trench width of 15 ⁇ m and depth of 20 ⁇ m.
- a GaN blue LED multilayer structure is formed by epitaxial growth using an metal oxide chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) method, wherein the total thickness of the multilayer structure is 4 ⁇ m.
- MOCVD metal oxide chemical vapor deposition
- An oxide mask layer is then deposited and a 2 ⁇ m thick PR layer is then spin-coated over the mask layer, wherein the PR layer is photolithographed to retain the 250 ⁇ m ⁇ 250 ⁇ m central region.
- the oxide layer is then etched through a photo lithography process to expose 35 ⁇ m wide boundaries on each side of the multilayer structure.
- the substrate then under goes an ICP dry etching process.
- the dry etching process removes the exposed low-quality edges and sidewalls of the multilayer structure, hence obtaining high-quality boundaries for the multilayer structure.
- a conventional substrate is patterned and etched to form diamond-shape individual deposition platforms.
- Each diamond-shaped deposition platform has a side of 285 ⁇ m and an acute angle of 60°.
- the trench structure that partitioned the substrate has a trench width of 15 ⁇ m and depth of 30 ⁇ m.
- a GaN blue LED multilayer structure is formed by epitaxial growth using an MOCVD method, wherein the total thickness of the multilayer structure is 4 ⁇ m.
- a 6 ⁇ m thick PR layer is then spin-coated over the multilayer structure, wherein the PR layer is photo lithographed to retain a 250 ⁇ m-side diamond shape, which subsequently exposes approximately 35 ⁇ m wide boundaries on each side of the multilayer structure.
- the substrate is then placed in an ICP machine, and is dry-etched until the active layer of the LED multilayer structure is etched through.
- the dry etch process removes the exposed low-quality edges and sidewalls of the multilayer structure, hence obtaining high-quality boundaries for the multilayer structure.
- removing low-quality boundaries 120 in FIG. 1C is performed from the underside of multilayer structure 114 .
- This technique is typically incorporated into a “flip-chip” style wafer bonding process and involves more steps than the topside etching process of FIG. 3 .
- FIG. 4 illustrates an exemplary step-by-step process of boundary removal from the underside of the multilayer structure in accordance with one embodiment of the present invention.
- Step A a silicon substrate 402 is patterned and etched to produce a number of mesas separated by trenches. Each mesa defines the surface area for growing a multilayer structure.
- multilayer structures 404 are formed above the substrate mesas. Note that in one embodiment, the mesas are sufficiently apart and the trenches are sufficiently deep so that the epitaxial growth of different layers does not create any attachment between two individual structures, thereby significantly reducing the stress associated with lattice-mismatched growth. In one embodiment of the present invention, multilayer structures 404 are GaN-based semiconductor structure 200 . Note that as-deposited multilayer structures 404 have low-quality boundaries due to the boundary effect.
- a gold bonding-layer 406 is deposited above multilayer structures 404 .
- gold layer 406 may partially fill the trenches between multilayer structures 404 and also form on the sidewalls of the mesas. Because bonding-layer metal can deposit on the sidewalls and short the P-N junctions, one embodiment of the present invention optionally forms an insulating layer over multilayer structure 404 prior to depositing metal bonding-layer 406 . Note that other metals suitable as a bonding material can also be used.
- support-structure 408 is attached and adhered to gold bonding-layer 406 .
- support-structure 408 is a new silicon substrate.
- Step E silicon deposition substrate 402 is removed using a wet etching process. As a result of removing silicon deposition substrate 402 , the underside of multilayer structures 404 is exposed. Note that the entire structure has been flipped over in Step E and multilayer structures 404 are supported by gold bonding-layer 406 and support-structure 408 .
- each multilayer structure is patterned with a mask layer 410 , which protects the high-quality region of each multilayer structure while exposing the low-quality region around the structure boundaries, and also exposing the bonding layer on the sidewalls.
- mask layer 410 is a photo-lithographed PR mask layer.
- mask layer 410 can be a photo-lithographed metal mask layer which also serves as an Ohmic-contact layer to the LED multi-layer structure.
- mask layer 410 is a photo-lithographed metal layer as described above except that the PR mask used in patterning the metal layer is retained over the patterned metal layer.
- mask layer 410 includes both the metal layer and the PR layer to provide more etch protection.
- Step G low-quality boundaries and sidewalls (including the bonding material on the sidewalls) of multilayer structures are removed using an etching process.
- the etching process is a wet etching process using a H 3 PO 4 acid bath.
- GaN or more generally InGaAlN
- the GaN crystal typically exhibit a hexagonal Wurtzite crystalline structure with a preferred stable growth surface in the (0001) direction.
- the GaN crystal exhibits a Ga-polarity in the growth direction, which points from the n-type doped layer to the p-doped layer.
- the removal of the original growth substrates exposes a surface that exhibits a N-polarity.
- H 3 PO 4 based wet etching A significant benefit of using H 3 PO 4 based wet etching is that the etchant reacts at a high rate with the N-polarity surface of the multi-layer structure, thereby significantly increasing the production speed.
- the etch rate of the H 3 PO 4 -acid based etchant can be controlled by heating the etchant to a predetermined temperature, wherein a higher temperature corresponds to a higher etching rate.
- the temperature of the H 3 PO 4 -acid bath is higher than 100° C.
- the temperature of H 3 PO 4 -acid bath is at 150° C.
- the etching mask suitable for the H 3 PO 4 wet etching process includes a PR mask, a metal mask, or a PR/metal dual-layer mask. Note that the H 3 PO 4 based wet etching can be much slower when applied to a Ga-polarity surface of the multi-layer structure due to the different properties of the two polarities of a GaN crystal. Therefore, the H 3 PO 4 based wet etching is particularly suitable for removing the low-quality regions from the underside of the structure after the flip-chip process.
- the etching process is a dry etch process, such as an ICP etching process.
- a dry etching process is typically anisotropic and perpendicular to the multilayer structure.
- the resulting sidewalls of multilayer structure 404 are substantially straight.
- the etching process may not need to completely go through stack 200 .
- the etching process only needs to etch through buffer layer 202 , n-type layer 204 and active layer 206 while p-type layer 208 is not etched, because the structure has been reversed due to the flip-chip process.
- Step H mask layer 410 is lifted off etched multilayer structure 404 , wherein the new boundaries of multilayer structure 404 are high-quality boundaries not susceptible to leakage current or ESD problems.
- an optional deposition step can be performed to coat the multilayer structures, including the sidewalls, with an insulating material. This provides a protection against shorting or contamination on the sidewalls of individual P-N junction structure.
