Fluorinated Silicon Oxide

Fluorinated silicon oxide (SiOF) films have been prepared in a conventional atmospheric pressure chemical vapor deposition (APCVD) reactor. APCVD technique utilizes tetraethoxysilane, ozone and hydrofluoric anhydride as gas sources. SiOF films are deposited by changing the temperature of deposit. Substrate holder was maintained in the temperature range of 200 to 275°C. Films were characterized based on the deposition temperature. Chemical bonding structure of the films was evaluated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Raman spectroscopy and ellipsometry techniques. FTIR spectra revealed Si-F bond at about 935 cm-1. Incorporation of fluorine has a minimal contribution in the reduction of refractive index of SiOF films from 1.46 to 1.35.Therefore, the main mechanism responsible for this reduction of refractive index is the porosity generated by incorporation of fluorine atom in the SiOF films. Dielectric constant was reduced from 4.2 corresponding to that of SiO2 films, to the values in the range of 3.18 to 3.6 for SiOF films deposited by APCVD technique.

ABSTRACTPlasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposited (PECVD) silane-based oxides (SiOx) have been widely used in both microelectronics and MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) to form electrical and/or mechanical components. In this paper, a novel nanoindentation-based microbridge testing method is developed to measure both the residual stresses and Young's modulus of PECVD SiOx films. Our theoretical model employed a closed formula of deflection vs. load, considering both substrate deformation and the residual stresses in the thin films. In particular, the non-negligible residual deflection caused by excessive compressive stresses was taken into account. Freestanding microbridges made of PECVD SiOx films were fabricated using bulk micromachining techniques. To simulate the thermal processing in device fabrication, these microbridges were subjected to rapid thermal annealing (RTA) up to 800°C. A microstructure-based mechanism was applied to explain the experimental results of the residual stress changes in PECVD SiOx films after thermal annealing.

Under different growth conditions, silicon Oxide (SiOx) thin films were deposited successfully on Si (100) substrates and glass substrates by plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). The thickness, refractive index and growth rate of the thin films were tested by ellipsometer. The effects of deposition temperature on the structure and properties of SiOx films were studied using X ray diffraction (XRD), X ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and UV-Visible spectroscopy. The results show that the SiOx films were amorphous at different deposition temperature. The peaks of Si2p and O1s shifted to higher binding energy with temperature increasing. The SiOx films had high transmissivity at the range of 400-900nm. By analyzing the observation and data, the influence of deposition parameters on the electrical properties and interface characteristics of SiOx thin film prepared by PECVD is systematically discussed. At last, SiOx thin film with excellent electrical properties and good interface characteristic is prepared under the relatively optimum parameters.
