Streszczenie:

The Tb32Co68/(SiNx/Co)n films (n = 0~3) were prepared by magnetron sputtering. The magnetic anisotropy of all Tb32Co68/(SiNx/Co)n films are perpendicular to the film plane. It is found that the saturation magnetization (Ms) and perpendicular coercivity (Hc⊥ ) of the Tb32Co68/(SiNx/Co)3 film are 263 emu/cm3 and 3592 Oe, respectively. This film appears to be a promising material as a heat-assisted magnetic recording (HAMR) medium. The cross-sectional high resolution transmission electron microscope (HRTEM) images show that the interface roughness between the (SiNx/Co)n layers and TbCo layer increases as n is increased. The rough surface provides more obstacles and pinning sites that hinder the motion of the domain walls at interface between the (SiNx/Co)n layers and TbCo layer. Therefore, the Hc values are profoundly influenced by the interface roughness.

ABSTRACTIntermediate layers between silicon and borosilicate glass are investigated for compatibility with a diode laser crystallization technique for fabrication of thin-film polycrystalline silicon solar cells. SiCx, SiNx and SiOx layers or multilayer stacks of these materials have allowed silicon films of 10μm thickness to be successfully crystallized by diode laser irradiation without dewetting, with each option offering different advantages. SiCx allows the most robust crystallization process, while SiOx is the best barrier to contamination and the most stable layer. SiNx offers the best anti-reflection coating for superstrate configured solar cells. Presently, best device performance is achieved with a SiOxintermediate layer with cells achieving up to ∼540 mV open-circuit voltage.

Streszczenie:

In the present work, the structure, stress state and phase composition of MeN/SiNx (Me = Zr, Cr, Al) multilayered films with the thickness of elementary layers in nanoscale range, as well as their stability to high temperature oxidation, were studied. Monolithic (reference) and multilayered films were deposited on Si substrates at the temperatures of 300 °C (ZrN/SiNx and AlN/SiNx systems) or 450 °C (CrN/SiNx) by reactive magnetron sputtering. The thickness ratios of MeN to SiNx were 5 nm/2 nm, 5 nm/5 nm, 5 nm/10 nm and 2 nm/5 nm. Transmission electron microscopy (TEM), X-ray Reflectivity (XRR) and X-ray Diffraction (XRD) testified to the uniform alternation of MeN and SiNx layers with sharp interlayer boundaries. It was observed that MeN sublayers have a nanocrystalline structure with (001) preferred orientation at 5 nm, but are X-ray amorphous at 2 nm, while SiNx sublayers are always X-ray amorphous. The stability of the coatings to oxidation was investigated by in situ XRD analysis (at the temperature range of 400–950 °C) along with the methods of wavelength-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (WDS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) after air annealing procedure. Reference ZrN and CrN films started to oxidize at the temperatures of 550 and 700 °C, respectively, while the AlN reference film was thermally stable up to 950 °C. Compared to reference monolithic films, MeN/SiNx multilayers have an improved oxidation resistance (onset of oxidation is shifted by more than 200 °C), and the performance is enhanced with increasing fraction of SiNx layer thickness. Overall, CrN/SiNx and AlN/SiNx multilayered films are characterized by noticeably higher resistance to oxidation as compared to ZrN/SiNx multilayers, the best performance being obtained for CrN/SiNx and AlN/SiNx with 5 nm/5 nm and 5 nm/10 nm periods, which remain stable at least up to 950 °C.

Streszczenie:

The thermomechanical behavior of Cu thin films, 600–1125 nm thick and encapsulated between SiNx barrier and SiNx or AlNx passivation layers on silicon substrates, was studied during thermal cycling between room temperature and 400 or 500 °C using the substrate curvature method. Films were prepared with varying oxygen contents, and the distribution of oxygen through the thickness of selected films was studied before and after thermal cycling using secondary ion mass spectrometry. Large variations in the thermomechanical behavior with oxygen content were found and correlated with segregation of oxygen to the film/barrier and film/passivation interfaces. These variations are thought to be due to recovery of stored misfit dislocation energy, which is, in turn, controlled by oxygen in the film. Effects of oxygen on film deformation through variations in interfacial adhesion and diffusion-induced dislocation glide are considered.

Streszczenie:

In this paper, the environmental stability of silicon nitride (SiNx) films deposited at 80 °C by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition was studied systematically. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared reflection were used to analyze the element content and atomic bond structure of the amorphous SiNx films. Variation of mechanical and optical properties were also evaluated. It is found that SiNx deposited at low temperature is easily oxidized, especially at elevated temperature and moisture. The hardness and elastic modulus did not change significantly with the increase of oxidation. The changes of the surface morphology, transmittance, and fracture extensibility are negligible. Finally, it is determined that SiNx films deposited at low-temperature with proper processing parameters are suitable for thin-film encapsulation of flexible devices.

Streszczenie:

The effect of parameters of plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) processes for SiNx film fabrication on the electrical parameters of dielectric/АlGaN/GaN structures has been studied. The effect of growing film composition, additional heterostructure surface treatment with nitrogen plasma before dielectric deposition and HF biasing during treatment on the parameters of the С–V and I–V curves of SiNx/АlGaN/GaN structures has been analyzed. We show that films with nitrogen to silicon concentration ratios of 60 and 40% and a high oxygen content exhibit a decrease in the positive fixed charge in the structures although the I–V curves of the structures exhibit current oscillations. Information has been reported on the effect of PECVD process mode on current oscillation parameters, e.g. period and amplitude, and length of I–V curve section in which oscillations occur. Possible explanation of these oscillations has been suggested. Additional nitrogen plasma treatment of heterostructure surface before monosilane supply to the chamber changes the magnitude and sign of fixed charge and reduces the free carrier concentration in the 2D gas channel of SiNx/АlGaN/GaN heterostructures. Experimental evidence has been provided for the effect of PECVD process parameters and surface preparation on the electrical parameters of the heterostructures grown.

Streszczenie:

Oxidation behavior of Ni-toughened reactively sputtered composite thin films of nanocrystalline TiN and amorphous SiNx [denoted as nc-TiN/a-SiNx(Ni)] was explored to understand the oxidation mechanism. The films were deposited on silicon substrate using a magnetron sputtering technique. Oxidation was carried out from 450 °C up to 1000 °C. The nature of the oxidation was determined using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The microstructure of the oxidized films was studied using grazing incidence x-ray diffraction. The topography was characterized using atomic force microscopy. It was determined that the oxidation of the nc-TiN/a-SiNx(Ni) thin film proceeds primarily through a diffusion process, in which nickel atoms diffuse outward and oxygen ions inward. The oxidation takes place by progressive replacement of nitrogen with diffused oxygen. Five regions were identified in the oxidized layer from surface into the film. For films doped with 2.1 at.% Ni, a threshold temperature of 850 °C was determined, below which, excellent oxidation resistance prevails but above which, oxidation takes place at exponential rate, accompanied by abrupt increase of surface roughness.

In this work, silicon nitride (SiNx) films were deposited on plastic substrates at room temperature close to 30[Formula: see text]C on polyethylenenaphthalate (PEN) films in an inductively coupled plasma (ICP) reactor with trisilylamine (TSA, N(SiH[Formula: see text]) precursor and ammonia for flexible moisture barrier films. Moisture barrier property is improved as SiNx layer gets thicker, but cracks are found at thicker films above 300[Formula: see text]nm or more. And the barrier performance of the thicker layers is degraded significantly. In order to improve both flexibility and barrier property, plasma polymer (PP) layers were deposited at room temperature and introduced between the SiNx layers. The water vapor transmission rate (WVTR) of a single SiNx film, [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]g/(m[Formula: see text]), is reduced to [Formula: see text][Formula: see text]g/(m[Formula: see text]) with SiNx/PP/SiNx/PP/SiNx alternating five-layer structure. After 1000 times bending in 1.5[Formula: see text]cm of bending radius, the WVTR increases by 41% with five-layer structure, while that of single-layer structure increases by 69%. This work demonstrated that the SiNx and PP layers can be deposited at room temperature for flexible moisture barrier films.

In this work, amorphous hydrogen-free silicon nitride (a-SiNx) and amorphous hydrogenated silicon nitride (a-SiNx:H) films were deposited by radio frequency (RF) sputtering applying various amounts of hydrogen gas. Structural and optical properties were investigated as a function of hydrogen concentration. The refractive index of 1.96 was characteristic for hydrogen-free SiNx thin film and with increasing H2 flow it decreased to 1.89. The hydrogenation during the sputtering process affected the porosity of the thin film compared with hydrogen-free SiNx. A higher porosity is consistent with a lower refractive index. Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed the presence of 4 at.% of bounded hydrogen, while elastic recoil detection analysis (ERDA) confirmed that 6 at.% hydrogen was incorporated during the growing mechanism. The molecular form of hydrogen was released at a temperature of ~65 °C from the film after annealing, while the blisters with 100 nm diameter were created on the thin film surface. The low activation energy deduced from the Arrhenius method indicated the diffusion of hydrogen molecules.

This study investigated the effects of different substrates on the mechanical properties of Ti-60at%Ni shape memory alloys (SMA). Two types of samples were prepared for this experiment: (1) a Ti-60at%Ni deposited on SiNx, and (2) a Ti-60at%Ni deposited on SiNx/Cr; both had a 600 nm thick film of Ti-60at%Ni. Deposition was done using the physical vapor deposition (PVD) process, and the microstructural changes and crystallization phase changes were observed through scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The results showed that the TiNi thin film with a Cr adhesion layer had better mechanical properties. The bulge test showed that TiNi thin film with a Cr adhesion had a higher Young’s modulus and lower residual stress. From the thermal cycling experiment, it was found that the Cr adhesion layer buffered the mismatch between TiNi and SiNx. Additionally, the thermal cycling test was also used to measure the thermal expansion coefficient of the films, and the fatigue test showed that the Cr layer significantly improved the fatigue resistance of the TiNi film.

Streszczenie:

In this study, silicon nitride (SiNx) thin films with different oxygen concentration (i.e., SiON film) were precisely deposited by plasma enhanced atomic layer deposition on Si (100) substrates. Thus, the effect of oxygen concentration on film properties is able to be comparatively studied and various valuable results are obtained. In detail, x-ray reflectivity, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, atomic force microscopy, and spectroscopic ellipsometry are used to systematically characterize the microstructural, optical, and electrical properties of SiON film. The experimental results indicate that the surface roughness increases from 0.13 to 0.2 nm as the oxygen concentration decreases. The refractive index of the SiON film reveals an increase from 1.55 to 1.86 with decreasing oxygen concentration. Accordingly, the band-gap energy of these films determined by oxygen 1s-peak analysis decreases from 6.2 to 4.8 eV. Moreover, the I-V tests demonstrate that the film exhibits lower leakage current and better insulation for higher oxygen concentration in film. These results indicate that oxygen affects microstructural, optical, and electrical properties of the prepared SiNx film.

We performed a systematic study involving simulation and experimental techniques to develop induced-junction silicon photodetectors passivated with thermally grown SiO2 and plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposited (PECVD) SiNx thin films that show a record high quantum efficiency. We investigated PECVD SiNx passivation and optimized the film deposition conditions to minimize the recombination losses at the silicon–dielectric interface as well as optical losses. Depositions with varied process parameters were carried out on test samples, followed by measurements of minority carrier lifetime, fixed charge density, and optical absorbance and reflectance. Subsequently, the surface recombination velocity, which is the limiting factor for internal quantum deficiency (IQD), was obtained for different film depositions via 2D simulations where the measured effective lifetime, fixed charge density, and substrate parameters were used as input. The quantum deficiency of induced-junction photodiodes that would be fabricated with a surface passivation of given characteristics was then estimated using improved 3D simulation models. A batch of induced-junction photodiodes was fabricated based on the passivation optimizations performed on test samples and predictions of simulations. Photodiodes passivated with PECVD SiNx film as well as with a stack of thermally grown SiO2 and PECVD SiNx films were fabricated. The photodiodes were assembled as light-trap detector with 7-reflections and their efficiency was tested with respect to a reference Predictable Quantum Efficient Detector (PQED) of known external quantum deficiency. The preliminary measurement results show that PQEDs based on our improved photodiodes passivated with stack of SiO2/SiNx have negligible quantum deficiencies with IQDs down to 1 ppm within 30 ppm measurement uncertainty.

Ag nanoparticles arrays were fabricated by self-assembly method to accommodate manufacturing process of traditional silicon solar cells. Surface morphologies of films (5-27.5 nm) after annealing treatment with 260 °C and 400 °C were analyzed. The results showed that annealing temperature has important impact on self-assembled nanoparticles arrays. The tuning function of SiNx dielectric film was also analyzed. The absorption peak generates a redshift with the maximum range about 100 nm in the absorption spectrum, and the peak widths become wider with the increase of thickness of SiNx dielectric film for the same particle size distribution of Ag nanoparticles arrays.

In this paper we study the process of using PECVD to obtain SiNx films, which serve as a dielectric passivation layers for AlGaN/GaN structures. Aim of this study was to determine the methods of controlling the properties of the films. The deposition of SiNx films was carried out in a Plasmalab System 100 ICP180 featuring an ICP source, which makes possible to form a high-density plasma without a significant increase in ion bombardment of substrates, and to use nitrogen instead of ammonia as one of the precursors, which reduces the hydrogen concentration in the film. The deposition of SiNx films was carried out in different modes in order to determine the influence of various deposition parameters on the shift of C-V characteristics, and to either eliminate the shift or make it positive. It was shown that this goal can be achieved by significantly increasing the nitrogen flow into the chamber during the deposition of SiNx films.

In this study, piezoelectric zinc oxide (ZnO) thin film was deposited on the Pt/Ti/SiNx/Si substrate to construct the FBAR device. The Pt/Ti multilayers were deposited on SiNx/Si as the bottom electrode and the Al thin film was deposited on the ZnO piezoelectric layer as the top electrode by a DC sputtering system. The ZnO thin film was deposited onto the Pt thin film by a radio frequency (RF) magnetron sputtering system. The cavity on back side for acoustic reflection of the FBAR device was achieved by KOH solution and reactive ion etching (RIE) processes. The crystalline structures and surface morphologies of the films were analyzed by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM). The optimized as-deposited ZnO thin films with preferred (002)-orientation were obtained under the sputtering power of 80 W and sputtering pressure of 20 mTorr. The crystalline characteristics of ZnO thin films and the frequency responses of the FBAR devices can be improved by using the rapid thermal annealing (RTA) process. The optimized annealing temperature and annealing time are 400 °C and 10 min, respectively. Finally, the FBAR devices with structure of Al/ZnO/Pt/Ti/SiNx/Si were fabricated. The frequency responses showed that the return loss of the FBAR device with RTA annealing was improved from −24.07 to −34.66 dB, and the electromechanical coupling coefficient (kt2) was improved from 1.73% to 3.02% with the resonance frequency of around 3.4 GHz.

The features of thin-film membranes, which are formed above round holes in silicon substrates using the Bosch-process are considered. The membrane has a complex shape due to the presence of the stress state of the initial films. The analysis of the dependence of the membrane deflection w on the supplied overpressure P is used to calculate the mechanical characteristics of the membranes. In this case, it is necessary to determine directly on the membrane its diameter, the thickness of the constituent layers, the change in the topography of the membrane surface over its entire area as the overpressure increases. Determination of the membrane diameter and the thicknesses of the constituent layers is shown by the example of p-Si*/SiNx/SiO2 and SiNx/SiO2/SiNx/SiO2 membranes. We used spectral ellipsometry, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, optical profilometry, optical microscopy. The influence of the peculiarities of the fixing conditions on the stress-strain state of membranes is shown, and the assessment is carried out by means of numerical modeling. A technique has been developed for measuring and calculating the mechanical characteristics of membranes that have an initial deflection. The calculation result is shown on the example of a membrane with an initial deflection of 2 μm --- SiNx/SiO2/SiNx/SiO2 and a membrane with an initial deflection of 30 μm --- Al/SiO2/Al.

In this work, we have demonstrated that the nanocrystal created by combining the self-assembled block copolymer thin film with regular semiconductor processing can be applicable to non-volatile memory device with increased charge storage capacity over planar structures. Self-assembled block copolymer thin film for nanostructures with critical dimensions below photolithographic resolution limits has been used during all experiments. Nanoporous thin film from PS-b-PMMA diblock copolymer thin film with selective removal of PMMA domains was used to fabricate nanostructure and nanocrystal. We have also reported about surface morphologies and electrical properties of the nano-needle structure formed by RIE technique. The details of nanoscale pattern of the very uniform arrays using RIE are presented. We fabricated different surface structure of nanoscale using block copolymer. We also deposited Si-rich SiNx layer using ICP-CVD on the silicon surface of nanostructure. The deposited films were studied after annealing.

Oxygen precipitation (OP) behaviors were investigated for Czochralski (Cz) silicon wafers, which were coated with silicon nitride (SiNx) films or not, subjected to two-step anneal of 800C/4 h+1000°C/16 h following rapid thermal processing (RTP) at different temperatures ranging from 1150 to 1250C for 50 s. It was found that OP in the Cz silicon wafers coated with SiNx films was stronger in each case. This was because that nitrogen atoms diffused into bulk of Cz silicon wafer from the surface coated SiNx film during the high temperature RTP. Furthermore, it was proved that the RTP lamp irradiation facilitated the in-diffusion of nitrogen atoms, which was most likely due to that the ultraviolet light enhanced the breakage of silicon-nitrogen bonds.

Streszczenie:

SiNx thin film has been widely used in crystalline silicon solar cell production because of the good anti-reflection and passivation effect. We can effectively optimize the cells performance by plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) method to change deposition conditions such as temperature, gas flow ratio, etc. In this paper, we deposit a new layer of SiNx thin film on the basis of double-layers process. By changing the process parameters, the compactness of thin films is improved effectively. The NH3passivation technology is augmented in a creative way, which improves the minority carrier lifetime. In sight of this, a significant increase is generated in the photoelectric performance of crystalline silicon solar cell.

Streszczenie:

The extreme ultraviolet (EUV) pellicle is a freestanding membrane that protects EUV masks from particle contamination during EUV exposure. Although a high EUV transmittance of the pellicle is required to minimize the loss of throughput, the degradation of EUV transmittance during the extended exposure of the pellicle has been recently reported. This may adversely affect the throughput of the lithography process. However, the cause of this phenomenon has not yet been clarified. Therefore, we investigated the cause of the degradation in the EUV transmittance by observing the compositional change when the Ru/SiNx pellicle composite was heated in an emulated EUV scanner environment. The Ru thin film that was deposited at high pressure had more void networks but was not oxidized, whereas the SiNx thin film was oxidized after heating. This was because the void network in the Ru thin film served as a preferential diffusion path for oxygen and caused oxidation of the SiNx thin film. It was confirmed that the degradation of the EUV transmittance was due to the oxidation of SiNx. The results verified the effect of diffusivity in the thin film due to the void network on oxidation and EUV transmittance.

Streszczenie:

Amorphous silicon thin films were deposited below 160oC on PES plastic films using PECVD. After thin film deposition using PECVD, thin film failures such as film delamination and cracking often occurred. For successful growth of thin films (about 2000 Å) without their failures, it is necessary to solve the critical problem related to the internal compressive stress (some GPa) leading to delamination at a threshold thickness value of the films. The Griffith’s theory explains the failure process by looking at the excess of elastic energy inside the film, which overcomes the cohesive energy between film and substrate. In this work, reducing a-Si layer film thickness and optimizing a barrier SiNx layer have produced stable a-Si films at 150oC, over PES substrates.

We optimized a silicon nitride (SiNx) passivation process using a catalytic-chemical vapor deposition (Cat-CVD) system to suppress the current collapse phenomenon of AlGaN/GaN-on-Si high electron mobility transistors (HEMTs). The optimized Cat-CVD SiNx film exhibited a high film density of 2.7 g/cm3 with a low wet etch rate (buffered oxide etchant (BOE) 10:1) of 2 nm/min and a breakdown field of 8.2 MV/cm. The AlGaN/GaN-on-Si HEMT fabricated by the optimized Cat-CVD SiNx passivation process, which had a gate length of 1.5 μm and a source-to-drain distance of 6 μm, exhibited the maximum drain current density of 670 mA/mm and the maximum transconductance of 162 mS/mm with negligible hysteresis. We found that the optimized SiNx film had positive charges, which were responsible for suppressing the current collapse phenomenon.

We discuss the study of the sphericity of the real shape of round thin-film membranes when it changes during the bulge testing. Membrane structures: SiNx/SiO2/SiNx/SiO2, pSi*/SiNx/SiO2, Al, etc. We described the technique for determining the areas of deviation of the membrane surface shape from a spherical one, estimating the magnitude and peculiarities of the distribution of the radius of curvature along the membrane diameter. It is shown that the shape of the membranes differs from spherical closer to the edge (perimeter), and in many cases also to the area of the top (center) of the membrane. A trend was found: an increase in the radius of curvature as it approaches the center of the membrane.

In flexible display, reliability of the thin film/polymer interface is an important issue because adhesion strength dissimilar materials is often inherently poor, and residual stresses arising from thermal mismatches or pressure exerted by vaporized moisture often lead to delaminations of interfaces. In the present study we deposited various thin films such as silicon nitride (SiNx), aluminum metal layer, and indium tin oxide on polyether sulphone (PES) substrate. The film adhesion was determined by micro-scratch test. The adhesion strength, presented by the critical load, Lc, when the film starts to delaminate, was determined as a function of plasma pretreated on PES substrate.

Streszczenie:

Protection of silver surface from corrosion is an important topic, as this metal is highly susceptible to damage by atomic oxygen, halogenated, acidic and sulfur-containing molecules. Protective coatings need to be efficient at relatively small thicknesses, transparent and must not affect the surface in any detrimental way, during the deposition or over its lifetime. We compare PECVD-deposited SiNx films to efficiency of ALD-deposited AlOx films as protectors of front surface silver mirrors against damage by oxygen plasma. Films of different thickness were deposited at room temperature and exposed to O2 ECR-plasma for various durations. Results were analyzed with optical and SEM microscopy, pulsed GD-OES, spectroscopic ellipsometry and spectrophotometry on reflection. Studies indicate that both films provide protection after certain minimal thickness. While this critical thickness seems to be smaller for SiNx films during short plasma exposures, longer plasma treatment reveals that the local defects in PECVD-deposited films (most likely due to erosion of some regions of the film and pinholes) steadily multiply with time of treatment and lead to slow drop of reflectance of SiNx-protected mirrors, whereas we showed before that ALD-deposited AlOx films reliably protect silver surface during long plasma exposures.

Composite SiNx/DLC films were deposited on silicon substrate by co-deposition system. The carbon plasma was generated by filtered cathodic arc source, simultaneously incorporated with silicon nitride from RF magnetron sputtering. The silicon nitride sputtering rate was maintained by fixed RF power at 100W while the arc current of FCA was varied from 20 to 80A.The SiNx/DLC film composition and optical properties were investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and spectroscopic ellipsometry respectively. The results revealed that the atomic concentration of carbon increased while those of silicon and nitrogen decreased with increasing arc current. The oxidation was found on the film surface and related to the atomic concentration of silicon. The optical properties can be changed as a function of carbon concentration by setting different arc current. In this work, the volume percentage of carbon obtained from spectroscopic ellipsometry using Bruggeman EMA model showed good numerical correlation with the atomic percentage of carbon from XPS analysis with the range spanning across 75-95 at. %.

Silicon nitride (SiNx) thin films using 1,3-di-isopropylamino-2,4-dimethylcyclosilazane (CSN-2) and N2 plasma were investigated. The growth rate of SiNx thin films was saturated in the range of 200–500 °C, yielding approximately 0.38 Å/cycle, and featuring a wide process window. The physical and chemical properties of the SiNx films were investigated as a function of deposition temperature. As temperature was increased, transmission electron microscopy (TEM) analysis confirmed that a conformal thin film was obtained. Also, we developed a three-step process in which the H2 plasma step was introduced before the N2 plasma step. In order to investigate the effect of H2 plasma, we evaluated the growth rate, step coverage, and wet etch rate according to H2 plasma exposure time (10–30 s). As a result, the side step coverage increased from 82% to 105% and the bottom step coverages increased from 90% to 110% in the narrow pattern. By increasing the H2 plasma to 30 s, the wet etch rate was 32 Å/min, which is much lower than the case of only N2 plasma (43 Å/min).

The influence of experimental parameters on the films morphological, structural and mechanical properties was studied. The general morphology of the film is observed by SEM and TEM. EDXS and FTIR were used to determine the film chemical composition and the nature of chemical bonding. It was observed that C≡N bonds and nitrogen percentage in the film are promoted when the substrate is biased. The role of an underlayer and the influence of its nature on the film adhesion on WC/Co substrates were also studied. In this case, nanoscratch tests showed that a SiNx thin film could be an appropriate underlayer.

The film thickness, d, varies from 0.1 to 5.0 μm. Resistivity measurements reveal martensitic transformation above room temperature for all the films except for 0.1μm-thick film which is transforming at much lower temperature. The magnetic characteristics of martensitic films such as susceptibility and anisotropy field extracted from the inplane and out-of-plane magnetization curves show film thickness dependence likewise Curie temperature obtained from the resistivity curves. The surface topography and micromagnetic structure are studied by scanning probe microscopy. A stripe magnetic domain pattern featuring a large out-of-plane magnetization component is found in the films. The domain width, δ, depends on the film thickness, d, as δ ~ d .

A new fabrication method to produce low residual stress PECVD SiNx layers at high frequency (13.56 MHz) was developed. High frequency up to 60W is employed in this new method to fabricate low stress SiNx. By adjusting the composition of reactant gases, process vacuum and the chamber temperature, the residual stress can be lower to-0.28 MPa, and high deposition rate up to 240 nm/min can be achieved. In addition, this paper investigated the influence of other important parameters on the results, such as pressure, power and gases flow rates. Moreover, by using the optimal process, the refractive index is ranged from 1.98 to 2.20, and the uniformity of run to run wafers is about ±3% for 4 inch wafers. Finally, a typical FBAR (film bulk acoustic wave resonator) structure using these low stress PECVD SiNx layers as solid layer and mask indicated that these layers are compatible in IC technology and suitable for using in fabricating MEMS(microelectromechanical systems) devices.

a-SiNx:H films have been prepared using ion-beam-assisted deposition and source gases of NH3, or N2 + NH3 gas mixtures. Some optical and electrical properties were compared with those of nonhydrogenated a-SiNx films, prepared using pure N2 as the ion source gas. H can significantly alter the a-SiNx:H film properties, but the effects are different, depending on the source gas used. a-SiNx:H films, prepared using NH3 ion beams exhibit activated conductivities, are photoconducting and display photoconductivity fatigue effects. For the same N concentrations, the decay of a-SiNx:H is faster than that of a-SiNx. This could be due to an indirect role for H, i.e., its effect on the recombination centre density. a-SiN0.82:H prepared with an NH3 + N2 gas mixture contains more N—H bonds than Si—H bonds, and this is opposite to that found in a-SiNx:H, made using an ammonia ion beam. Even though the N concentrations and the total H concentrations are kept fairly constant in this group of films, the electrical activation energies, optical gaps and conductivities are different. The results suggest that the Si—H bond is more important than the N—H bond in determining the film properties for Si-rich films. The photoconductivities for the group of films made with the gas mixture are lower than those observed for a-SiNx:H films prepared with NH3 alone. In addition, the mixing of NH3 with N2 for the ion source reduces both the optical gaps and the activation energies, and increases the dark conductivities of the films for the same N concentration, when a lower NH3/(NH3 + N2) gas ratio is used.

In this paper, an InGaZnO thin-film transistor (TFT) based on plasma oxidation of silicon nitride (SiNx) gate dielectric with small subthreshold swing (SS) and enhanced stability under negative bias illumination stress (NBIS) have been investigated in detail. The mechanism of the high-performance InGaZnO TFT with plasma-oxidized SiNx gate dielectric was also explored. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) results confirmed that an oxygen-rich layer formed on the surface of the SiNx layer and the amount of oxygen vacancy near the interface between SiNx and InGaZnO layer was suppressed via pre-implanted oxygen on SiNx gate dielectric before deposition of the InGaZnO channel layer. Moreover, the conductance method was employed to directly extract the density of the interface trap (Dit) in InGaZnO TFT to verify the reduction in oxygen vacancy after plasma oxidation. The proposed InGaZnO TFT with plasma oxidation exhibited a field-effect mobility of 16.46 cm2/V·s, threshold voltage (Vth) of −0.10 V, Ion/Ioff over 108, SS of 97 mV/decade, and Vth shift of −0.37 V after NBIS. The plasma oxidation on SiNx gate dielectric provides a novel approach for suppressing the interface trap for high-performance InGaZnO TFT.

Indium-gallium-zinc oxide Thin Film Transistors (IGZO-TFT) were separately prepared with SiOx and SiNx/ SiOx as gate insulator,with IGZO films deposited at room-temperature by RF magnetron sputtering method as active layer.Compared with TFT with SiOx as gate insulator, The saturation mobility and the on/off ratio of TFT with SiNx/ SiOx as gate insulator were much higher. And,the threshold swing was also smaller.But,the threshold voltage was not good enough,was larger. By annealing at 200°C in the air,the saturation mobility increased from 1.42 to 7.5 cm2.V-1.S-1. While, the saturation mobility had no obvious change when TFT was annealed at high temperature. Seriously, IGZO annealed at high temperature would become crystal,it was not good for the ohmic contact between active layer and metal conductive layer,and,the interface between active layer and insulator would be deteriorated.These will result in the threshold swing become larger and the on/off ratio get smaller.200°C is a suitable temperature for annealing. So,using SiNx/ SiOx films as gate insulator,together with TFT annealing at low temperature, could improve the performances of TFT effectively.

Temperature and film thickness are expected to have an influence on the mechanical properties of thin films. However, mechanical testing of ultrathin metallic films at elevated temperatures is difficult, and few experiments have been conducted to date. Here, we present a systematic study of the mechanical properties of 80–500-nm-thick polycrystalline Au films with and without SiNx passivation layers in the temperature range from 123 to 473 K. The films were tested by a novel synchrotron-based tensile testing technique. Pure Au films showed strong temperature dependence above 373 K, which may be explained by diffusional creep. In contrast, passivated samples appeared to deform by thermally activated dislocation glide. The observed activation energies for both mechanisms are considerably lower than those for the bulk material, indicating that concomitant stress relaxation mechanisms are more pronounced in the thin film geometry.

We report the fabrication of bottom gate a-IGZO TFTs based on HfO2 stacked dielectrics with decent electrical characteristics and bias stability. The microscopic, electrical, and optical properties of room temperature deposited a-IGZO film with varied oxygen content were explored. In order to suppress the bulk defects in the HfO2 thin film and hence maximize the quality, surface modification of the SiNx film was investigated so as to achieve a more uniform layer. The root mean square (RMS) roughness of SiNx/HfO2/SiNx (SHS) stacked dielectrics was only 0.66 nm, which was reduced by 35% compared with HfO2 single film (1.04 nm). The basic electrical characteristics of SHS-based a-IGZO TFT were as follows: Vth is 2.4 V, μsat is 21.1 cm2 V−1 s−1, Ion/Ioff of 3.3 × 107, Ioff is 10−11 A, and SS is 0.22 V/dec. Zr-doped HfO2 could form a more stable surface, which will decrease the bulk defect states so that the stability of device can be improved. It was found that the electrical characteristics were improved after Zr doping, with a Vth of 1.4 V, Ion/Ioff of 108, μsat of 19.5 cm2 V−1 s−1, Ioff of 10−12 A, SS of 0.18 V/dec. After positive gate bias stress of 104 s, the ΔVth was decreased from 0.43 V (without Zr doping) to 0.09 V (with Zr doping), the ΔSS was decreased from 0.19 V/dec to 0.057 V/dec, respectively, which shows a meaningful impact to realize the long-term working stability of TFT devices.

Series of a-Si:H/a-SiNx multilayers were prepared by very high frequency plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition system. As-deposited samples were thermally annealed at the various temperatures. The effects of thermal annealing on the properties of luminescence were investigated. The photoluminescence intensity of the film annealed at 600 °C is found to be higher than that of the film without annealing. However, with further increasing the annealing temperature from 600 °C to 800 °C, the photoluminescence intensity of the film rapidly decreases. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and Raman-scattering spectroscopy were used to study the changes of the microstructures and bonding configurations. Based on the measurements of structural and bonding configurations, the improved photoluminescence intensity is attributed to the forming of radiative defect states caused by the effusion of hydrogen in the films.

It is found that the refractive index (n) of the Cat-CVD SiNx films are controlled from 2.0 to 2.5 by varying the flow ratio of SiH4 and NH3. The properties of the SiNx (n = 2.0) are investigated, and it is found that, 1) the 16-BHF etching rate of the Cat-CVD SiNx film is only 23 A/min, and the film shows excellent moisture resistance, 2) the Cat-CVD SiNx film shows good insulating properties, and the breakdown electric field is higher than 9 MV/cm and the interface state density is 5.6x 1011 cm2eV-1, 3) the step coverage of the film is very conformal.

AbstractFeasibility of SiNx passivation films at low substrate temperatures prepared by catalytic chemical vapor deposition (Cat-CVD) is studied for ferroelectric nonvolatile random access memories (FRAMs). SiNx films were prepared at low substrate temperatures of 100 °C, 175 °C and 200 °C using Cat-CVD. Adjusting on flow rate ratio of SiH4/NH3, the refractive index of SiNx film, deposited at 175 °C and 200 °C, measured by ellipsometry is controlled around 2.0. SiNx films, with the refractive index around 2.0, deposited at only 200 °C show the following properties. 1) No oxidation during air exposure for 3 months was observed for the films. 2) Etching rate of the films in buffered HF is 20 nm/min. The dense SiNx film, which is resistive for oxidation in air exposure and dissolution in buffered HF, is prepared at 200 °C and the film is suitable to the passivation of ferroelectric capacitors.

AbstractThe prospect of large-area electronics on polymers, for flexible applications requires a study of thin film fracture mechanisms. To fabricate thin-film transistor (TFT) backplanes on polymer foils the substrate must first be passivated to protect the polymer substrate from chemicals used during processing and to protect the TFTs from substrate out gassing. Silicon nitride (SiNx) is commonly used for this purpose since it tends to adhere well to polymers and is easily deposited by PE-CVD. When rigid thin films such as SiNx are deposited onto compliant substrates, such as polymer foils, stresses caused by built-in strains and the mismatch in coefficients of thermal expansion can cause fracture. The deposited thin films may fracture, and also the polymer substrate below. Using focused-ion beam milling and scanning electron microscopy we analyzed two distinct thin film fracture morphologies for SiNx films on two different types of polymer substrate. One had a relatively low, the other a relatively high coefficient of thermal expansion. For both SiNx/substrate systems the SiNx was under residual compressive stress and the substrate under tension. In one case the compressive stress in the thin films cause them to debond, buckle, and crack. In the other case the tensile stress in the substrate causes it to tear, followed by the fracture of the SiNx film above.

AbstractWe have reported on the stress effects of the SiNx passivation film on AlGaN/GaN heterojunction field effect transistors (HFETs). The AlGaN/AlN/GaN heterostructure was grown using a metalorganic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD). We first investigated the dependences between SiNx films and the refractive index of these. As a result, the stress type of the SiNx films was all Tensile. Moreover, the refractive index of SiNx increased, the stress was decreasing and almost invariable over refractive index 2.1. Furthermore, we fabricated some kinds of AlGaN/GaN HFETs and estimated the gate-leakage current and the current collapse of HFET. As a result, we confirmed the relationship between the stress of passivation film and gate-leakage current, and that the low stress SiNx film with a high-refractive index can suppress both a gate-leakage current and a current collapse.
