- FIG. 3 is a schematic cross-sectional view of a semiconductor epitaxial wafer 200 obtained by this manufacturing method. Hereinafter, details of each process will be described in order.
- the semiconductor wafer 10 is prepared.
- a first step of irradiating the surface 10A of the semiconductor wafer 10 with cluster ions 16 containing hydrogen as a constituent element is performed.
- the beam current value of the cluster ions 16 is set to 50 ⁇ A or more in this first step. It is important to do.
- cluster ions mean ions that are ionized by applying a positive charge or a negative charge to a cluster formed by aggregating a plurality of atoms or molecules.
- a cluster is a massive group in which a plurality (usually about 2 to 2000) of atoms or molecules are bonded to each other.
- the difference in solid solution behavior between the case where cluster ion irradiation is performed on the semiconductor wafer 10 and the case where monomer ion implantation is performed is explained as follows. That is, for example, when monomer ions composed of a predetermined element are implanted into a silicon wafer as a semiconductor wafer, the monomer ions repel silicon atoms constituting the silicon wafer as shown in FIG. It is injected into a predetermined depth position.
- the implantation depth depends on the type of constituent elements of the implanted ions and the acceleration voltage of the ions. In this case, the concentration profile of the predetermined element in the depth direction of the silicon wafer is relatively broad, and the region where the injected predetermined element is present is approximately 0.5 to 1 ⁇ m.
- Monomer ions are generally implanted at an acceleration voltage of about 150 to 2000 keV. Since each ion collides with a silicon atom with its energy, the crystallinity of the surface layer of the silicon wafer into which the monomer ions are implanted is disturbed. In particular, the crystallinity of the epitaxial layer grown on the wafer surface tends to be disturbed. Further, the higher the acceleration voltage, the more the crystallinity tends to be disturbed.
- cluster ions are implanted into a silicon wafer, as shown in FIG. 4A, when the cluster ions 16 are implanted into the silicon wafer, the energy instantaneously becomes a high temperature of about 1350 to 1400 ° C. The silicon melts. Thereafter, the silicon is rapidly cooled, and the constituent elements of the cluster ions 16 are dissolved in the vicinity of the surface in the silicon wafer.
- the concentration profile of the constituent elements in the depth direction of the silicon wafer depends on the acceleration voltage and cluster size of cluster ions, but is sharper than that of monomer ions, and the existence region of irradiated constituent elements is approximately 500 nm or less. (For example, about 50 to 400 nm).
- the irradiated ions form a cluster compared to the monomer ions, the crystal lattice is not channeled and the thermal diffusion of the constituent elements is suppressed. It is. As a result, the precipitation region of the constituent elements of the cluster ions 16 can be locally and highly concentrated.
- the beam current value of the cluster ions 16 is set to 50 ⁇ A or more and the surface ions of the surface 10A of the semiconductor wafer 10 are irradiated with hydrogen ions in a relatively short time to increase the damage of the surface layer portion. It is important. Damage is increased by setting the beam current value to 50 ⁇ A or more.
- the peak of the hydrogen concentration profile detected by SIMS analysis is detected in the surface layer portion of the semiconductor wafer 10 on the epitaxial layer 20 side. Can exist. On the contrary, if the beam current value is less than 50 ⁇ A, the surface layer portion of the semiconductor wafer 10 is not sufficiently damaged, and hydrogen diffuses due to the heat treatment during the formation of the epitaxial layer 20.
- the beam current value of the cluster ions 16 can be adjusted, for example, by changing the decomposition conditions of the source gas in the ion source.
- a second step of forming the epitaxial layer 20 on the surface 10A of the semiconductor wafer 10 is performed.
- the epitaxial layer 20 in the second step is as described above.
- the method for manufacturing the semiconductor epitaxial wafer 200 according to the present invention can be provided.
- the beam current value of the cluster ions 16 is set to 100 ⁇ A or more in order to make the peak of the hydrogen concentration profile detected by the SIMS analysis exist more reliably in the surface layer portion of the semiconductor wafer 10. It is preferable to set it to 300 ⁇ A or more.
- the beam current value is preferably set to 5000 ⁇ A or less.
- the constituent elements of the cluster ions 16 to be irradiated contain hydrogen
- other constituent elements are not particularly limited, and examples thereof include carbon, boron, phosphorus, and arsenic.
- the cluster ions 16 preferably contain carbon as a constituent element. This is because the modified layer 18 which is a region in which carbon is dissolved is formed. Since the carbon atom at the lattice position has a smaller covalent radius than that of the silicon single crystal, a shrinkage field of the silicon crystal lattice is formed, which becomes a gettering site that attracts impurities between the lattices.
- the irradiation element contains an element other than hydrogen and carbon.
- dopant elements selected from the group consisting of boron, phosphorus, arsenic, and antimony in addition to hydrogen and carbon.
- the carbon source compound it is particularly preferable to use a cluster C n H m (3 ⁇ n ⁇ 16, 3 ⁇ m ⁇ 10) formed from pyrene (C 16 H 10 ), dibenzyl (C 14 H 14 ) or the like. This is because it is easy to control a small-sized cluster ion beam.
- the cluster size can be appropriately set at 2 to 100, preferably 60 or less, more preferably 50 or less.
- the cluster size can be adjusted by adjusting the gas pressure of the gas ejected from the nozzle, the pressure of the vacuum vessel, the voltage applied to the filament during ionization, and the like.
- the cluster size can be obtained by obtaining a cluster number distribution by mass spectrometry using a quadrupole high-frequency electric field or time-of-flight mass spectrometry and taking an average value of the number of clusters.
- the cluster ions can be generated by a known method as described in the following document.

- a Nielsen ion source or a Kaufman ion source is used to generate positively charged cluster ions
- a large current negative ion source using a volume generation method is used to generate negatively charged cluster ions. It is done.
- Acceleration voltage of cluster ions affects the peak position of the concentration profile in the thickness direction of the constituent elements of cluster ions together with the cluster size.
- the acceleration voltage of the cluster ions is more than 0 keV / Cluster and less than 200 keV / Cluster, preferably 100 keV / Less than Cluster, more preferably less than 80 keV / Cluster.

Abstract
Description
すなわち、本発明の要旨構成は以下のとおりである。
本発明の一実施形態に従う半導体エピタキシャルウェーハ100は、図1(A)に示すように、半導体ウェーハ10の表面10A上にエピタキシャル層20が形成された半導体エピタキシャルウェーハであって、半導体ウェーハ10の、エピタキシャル層20が形成された側の表層部において、SIMS分析により検出される水素濃度プロファイルのピークが存在することを特徴とする。また、エピタキシャル層20は、裏面照射型固体撮像素子等の半導体素子を製造するためのデバイス層となる。以下、各構成の詳細を順に説明する。
次に、これまで説明してきた本発明による半導体エピタキシャルウェーハ200を製造する方法の一実施形態について説明する。本発明の一実施形態による半導体エピタキシャルウェーハ200の製造方法は、図3に示すように、半導体ウェーハ10の表面10Aに、構成元素として水素を含むクラスターイオン16を照射する第1工程(図3(A),(B))と、第1工程の後、半導体ウェーハ10の表面10A上にエピタキシャル層20を形成する第2工程(図3(C))と、を有し、第1工程において、クラスターイオン16のビーム電流値を50μA以上とすることを特徴とする。図3(C)は、この製造方法によって得られた半導体エピタキシャルウェーハ200の模式断面図である。以下、各工程の詳細を順に説明する。
本発明の実施形態による固体撮像素子の製造方法は、上記の半導体エピタキシャルウェーハまたは上記の製造方法で製造された半導体エピタキシャルウェーハ、すなわち半導体エピタキシャルウェーハ100,200の表面に位置するエピタキシャル層20に、固体撮像素子を形成することを特徴とする。この製造方法により得られる固体撮像素子は、従来に比べ白傷欠陥の発生を十分に抑制することができる。
まず、クラスターイオンのビーム電流値の違いによるシリコンウェーハの表層部におけるダメージ状態の相違を明らかにするため、以下の実験を行った。
CZ単結晶から得たp−型シリコンウェーハ(直径:300mm、厚み:775μm、ドーパント種類:ボロン、抵抗率:20Ω・cm)を用意した。次いで、クラスターイオン発生装置(日新イオン機器社製、型番:CLARIS)を用いて、シクロヘキサン(C6H12)をクラスターイオン化したC3H5のクラスターイオンを、加速電圧80keV/Cluster(水素1原子あたりの加速電圧1.95keV/atom、炭素1原子あたりの加速電圧23.4keV/atomであり、水素の飛程距離は40nm、炭素の飛程距離は80nmである)の照射条件でシリコンウェーハの表面に照射し、参考例1にかかるシリコンウェーハを作製した。なお、クラスターイオンを照射した際のドーズ量は、水素原子数に換算して1.6×1015atoms/cm2とし、炭素原子数に換算して1.0×1015atoms/cm2とした。そして、クラスターイオンのビーム電流値を800μAとした。
クラスターイオンのビーム電流値を30μAに変えた以外は、参考例1と同じ条件で、参考例2にかかるシリコンウェーハを作製した。
クラスターイオン照射後の参考例1,2にかかるシリコンウェーハについて、磁場型SIMS測定を行い、ウェーハ厚み方向における水素濃度および炭素濃度のプロファイルをそれぞれ測定した。代表例として、参考例1の濃度プロファイルを図5(A)に示す。ビーム電流値のみを変えた参考例2でも図5(A)と同様の濃度プロファイルが得られた。ここで、図5(A)の横軸の深さはシリコンウェーハのクラスターイオン照射面側の表面をゼロとしている。
参考例1,2にかかるシリコンウェーハの、クラスターイオン照射領域を含むシリコンウェーハ表層部の断面をTEM(Transmission Electron Microscope:透過型電子顕微鏡)にて観察した。参考例1,2にかかるシリコンウェーハのTEM断面写真を、図5(B),(C)にそれぞれ示す。図5(B)における囲み線部分における黒色のコントラストの見られる位置が、ダメージの特に大きな領域である。
(実施例1−1)
参考例1と同じ条件で、シリコンウェーハにC3H5のクラスターイオンを照射した。その後、シリコンウェーハを枚葉式エピタキシャル成長装置(アプライドマテリアルズ社製)内に搬送し、装置内で1120℃の温度で30秒の水素ベーク処理を施した後、水素をキャリアガス、トリクロロシランをソースガス、1150℃でCVD法により、シリコンウェーハの表面上にシリコンのエピタキシャル層(厚さ:7.8μm、ドーパント種類:ボロン、抵抗率:10Ω・cm)をエピタキシャル成長させ、実施例1−1にかかるエピタキシャルウェーハを作製した。
クラスターイオンのビーム電流値を30μAに変えた以外は、実施例1−1と同じ条件で、比較例1−1にかかるエピタキシャルウェーハを作製した。
クラスターイオンを照射しなかった以外は、実施例1−1と同じ条件で、従来例1−1にかかるエピタキシャルウェーハを作製した。
実施例1−1および比較例1−1にかかるシリコンウェーハについて、磁場型SIMS測定を行い、ウェーハ厚み方向における水素濃度および炭素濃度のプロファイルをそれぞれ測定した。実施例1−1の水素および炭素の濃度プロファイルを図6(A)に示す。また、比較例1−1の水素濃度プロファイルを図6(B)に示す。ここで、図6(A),(B)の横軸の深さはエピタキシャルウェーハのエピタキシャル層表面をゼロとしている。深さ7.8μmまでがエピタキシャル層に相当し、深さ7.8μm以上の深さがシリコンウェーハに相当する。なお、エピタキシャルウェーハをSIMS測定した際に、エピタキシャル層の厚みに±0.1μm程度の不可避的な測定誤差が生じるため、図中における7.8μmが厳密な意味でのエピタキシャル層と、シリコンウェーハとの境界値にはならない。
実施例1−1、比較例1−1および従来例1−1にかかるエピタキシャルウェーハを斜め研磨加工したサンプルに対して断面方向からCL法を行い、エピタキシャル層の厚み(深さ)方向のCLスペクトルをそれぞれ取得した。測定条件としては、33K下において電子線を20keVで照射した。実施例1−1および従来例1−1の、厚み方向のCL強度の測定結果を図7に示す。なお、比較例1−1の測定結果は、従来例1−1と同様であった。
(実施例2−1)
さらに、作製した実施例1−1にかかるエピタキシャルウェーハに対して、デバイス形成を模擬して、温度1100℃、30分間の熱処理を施した。
実施例2−1と同様に、作製した従来例1−1にかかるエピタキシャルウェーハに対して、温度1100℃、30分間の熱処理を施した。
評価1−1と同様に、実施例2−1にかかるシリコンウェーハについて、磁場型SIMS測定を行い、ウェーハ厚み方向における水素濃度および炭素濃度のプロファイルを測定した。実施例2−1の水素および炭素の濃度プロファイルを図8に示す。ここで、図6(A)と同様に、横軸の深さはエピタキシャルウェーハのエピタキシャル層表面をゼロとしている。
評価1−2と同様に、実施例2−1および従来例2−1にかかるエピタキシャルウェーハのCLスペクトルをそれぞれ取得した。結果を図9に示す。
