Definitions

  • This application relates generally to the deposition of silicon- containing materials in semiconductor processing. More particularly, this application relates to the deposition of substitutionally-doped silicon-containing films by chemical vapor deposition using trisilane and a dopant source.
  • semiconductors such as silicon (Si), germanium (Ge) and alloys thereof (SiGe) are influenced by the degree to which the materials are strained.
  • silicon exhibits enhanced electron mobility under tensile strain
  • silicon-germanium (SiGe) exhibits enhanced hole mobility under compressive strain.
  • Methods of enhancing the performance of semiconductors are of considerable interest and have potential applications in a variety of semiconductor processing applications.
  • semiconductor processing is most commonly employed for the fabrication of integrated circuits, which entails particularly stringent quality demands, but such processing is also employed in a variety of other fields.
  • semiconductor processing techniques are often employed in the fabrication of flat panel displays using a wide variety of technologies and in the fabrication of microelectromechanical systems (MEMS).
  • MEMS microelectromechanical systems
  • a number of approaches for inducing strain in Si- and Ge-containing materials have focused on exploiting the differences in the lattice constants between various crystalline materials, e.g., Ge (5.65 A), Si (5.431 A) and carbon (3.567 A for diamond).
  • thin layers of a particular crystalline material are deposited onto a different crystalline material in such a way that the deposited layer adopts the lattice constant of the underlying single crystal material.
  • strained SiGe layers may be formed by heteroepitaxial deposition onto single crystal Si substrates.
  • the deposited heteroepitaxial SiGe follows the smaller lattice constant of the Si beneath it and thus is compressively strained to a degree that varies as a function of the Ge content. Typically, the band gap decreases monotonically from 1.12 eV for pure Si to 0.67 eV for pure Ge as the Ge content in the SiGe increases.
  • tensile strain is introduced into a thin single crystalline silicon layer by heteroepitaxially depositing the silicon layer onto a strain-relaxed SiGe layer.
  • the heteroepitaxially deposited silicon is strained because its lattice constant follows the larger lattice constant of the relaxed SiGe beneath it.
  • the tensile strained heteroepitaxially deposited silicon typically exhibits increased electron mobility.
  • the strain is developed at the substrate level before the device (e.g., a transistor) is fabricated.
  • Strain may be introduced into single crystalline Si-containing materials by substitutional doping, e.g., where the dopants replace Si in the lattice structure.
  • substitutional doping e.g., where the dopants replace Si in the lattice structure.
  • substitution of germanium atoms for some of the silicon atoms in the lattice structure of single crystalline silicon produces a compressive strain in the resulting substitutionally doped single crystalline silicon material because the germanium atoms are larger than the silicon atoms that they replace.
  • a tensile strain may be introduced into single crystalline silicon by substitutional doping with carbon, because carbon atoms are smaller than the silicon atoms that they replace. See, e.g., Judy L.
  • in situ doping is often preferred over ex situ doping followed by annealing to incorporate the dopant into the lattice structure because the annealing may undesirably consume thermal budget.
  • in situ substitutional carbon doping is complicated by the tendency for the dopant to incorporate non-substitutionally during deposition, e.g., interstitially in domains or clusters within the silicon, rather than by substituting for silicon atoms in the lattice structure. See, e.g., the aforementioned article by Hoyt.

  • increasing the HCl concentration tends to depress the desirable gettering reaction by shifting the equilibrium for equation (7) to the left.
  • a non-hydrogen carrier gas (which is generally the dominant gas in the system) will avoid the consumption of Cl 2 by equation (8), thereby avoiding depressing the deposition reactions (4), (5) and the gettering reaction (7).
  • the main carrier gas, representing the largest source of gas in the system is non-hydrogen.
  • FIGURE 16 illustrates a preferred reactor system 100 employing a carrier gas (helium in the illustrated embodiment), a carbon source (MMS in the illustrated embodiment), trisilane and an etching gas (Cl 2 in the illustrated embodiment).
  • a purifier 102 is positioned downstream of the carrier gas source 104. Some of the inert gas flow is shunted to a vaporizer in the form of a bubbler 106, from which the carrier gas carries vaporized trisilane 108.
  • the trisilane can be simply heated to increase the vapor pressure of trisilane in the space above the liquid, and the carrier gas picks up trisilane as it passes through that space.
  • downstream of the liquid reactant source container 106 is an analyzer 110 that determines, by measuring the speed of sound through the vapor, the reactant concentration of the flowing gas. Based upon that measurement, the setpoint for the software-controlled downstream mass flow controller (MFC) 112 is altered by the analyzer 110.
  • MFC software-controlled downstream mass flow controller
  • the flow through this MFC 112 merges with the main carrier gas through the main carrier gas MFC 114 and other reactants at the gas panel, upstream of the injection manifold 120 for the deposition chamber 122.
  • a source of etchant gas 130 is also optionally provided for selective deposition processes, preferably Cl 2 gas.
  • a carbon source 132 illustrated as MMS
  • a source for dopant hydride 134 phosphine shown
  • the reactor system 100 also includes a central controller 150, electrically connected to the various controllable components of the system 100.
  • the controller is programmed to provide gas flows, temperatures, pressures, etc., to practice the deposition processes as described herein upon a substrate housed within the reaction chamber 122.
  • the controller 150 typically includes a memory and a microprocessor, and may be programmed by software, hardwired or a combination of the two, and the functionality of the controller may be distributed among processors located in different physical locations. Accordingly, the controller 150 can also represent a plurality of controllers distributed through the system 100.
  • the combination of carbon source/trisilane results in enhanced deposition rates for silicon-containing materials, particularly epitaxial layers.
  • the gas flow rates are selected, in combination with pressure and temperature, to achieve selective deposition of Si: C on/in semiconductor windows among insulating material.
  • the dopant hydride source 134 is preferably also provided to produce in situ doped semiconductor layers with enhanced conductivity.
  • the dopant hydride is arsine or phosphine, and the layer is n-type doped.
  • the diluent inert gas for the dopant hydride is also a non-hydrogen inert gas.
  • phosphine and MMS are preferably stored at their source containers 132, 134 in, e.g., helium.
  • Typical dopant hydride concentrations are 0.1% to 5% in helium, more typically 0.5% to 1.0% in helium for arsine and phosphine.
  • Typical carbon source concentrations are 5% to 50% in helium, more typically 10% to 30% in helium. For example, experiments are being conducted with 20% MMS in helium.
  • An eight-inch unpatterned Si ⁇ 100> wafer substrate was loaded into an Epsilon E2500TM reactor system.
  • the substrate was then introduced into the reactor system at 900 0 C, at a hydrogen flow rate of 20 slm, and the substrate was allowed to stabilize for 1 minute.
  • the hydrogen flow was then reduced to 2 slm as the temperature of the substrate was reduced to 550 0 C.
  • the substrate was then allowed to stabilize for 10 seconds, after which time a flow of 50 mg/min of trisilane and 40 seem of MMS was introduced for 7.5 minutes.
  • a flow of 100 seem phosphine (1% in H 2 ) was simultaneously provided and the deposition was conducted at a deposition pressure of about 64 Torr.
  • the phosphorous-doped Si:C film deposited on the silicon wafer had excellent epitaxial quality, a resistivity of 0.8 m ⁇ »cm (center) and contained about 3.5 atomic % carbon.
  • a phosphorous-doped Si:C film was deposited in the manner described in Example 1 except that a patterned substrate having single crystal regions and insulator (oxide) regions was used.
  • the phosphorous-doped Si: C film formed over both the single crystal and the insulator regions, and had substantially the same thickness (about 200 nm) over both.
