ABSTRACTSilicon on insulator structures consisting of a buried dielectric, formed by the implantation of high doses of oxygen ions, have been shown to be suitable substrates for LSI circuits. The substrates are compatible with present silicon processing technologies and are confidently expected to be suitable for VLSI circuits. In this paper the microstructure and physical properties of this SOI material will be described and the dependence of these characteristics upon the implantation conditions and subsequent thermal processing will be discussed. With this information, it is then possible to outline the specification for a high current oxygen implanter.

Experiments in ion implantation were first performed almost 40 years ago by nuclear physicists. More recently, ion implanters have become permanent fixtures in integrated circuit processing lines. Manufacture of the more complex integrated circuits may involve as many as 10 different ion implantation steps. Implantation is used primarily at f luences of 1012–1015 ions/cm2 to tailor the electrical properties of a semiconductor substrate, but causing only a small perturbation in the composition of the target (see the article by Seidel and Larson in this issue of the MRS Bulletin). Applications of implantation had been limited by the small beam currents that were available, but recently a new generation of high-current implanters has been developed. This high-current capability allows implanting concentrations up to three orders of magnitude higher than those required for doping—enough to create a compound.

Synthesis of a thin, buried dielectric layer to form a silicon-on-insulator (SOI) material by high dose oxygen implantation (SIMOX – Separation by IMplanted Oxygen) is becoming an important technology due to the advent of high current (200 mA) oxygen implanters. Recently, reductions in defect densities from 109 cm−2 down to 107 cm−2 or less have been reported. They were achieved with a final high temperature annealing step (1300°C – 1400°C) in conjunction with: a) high temperature implantation or; b) channeling implantation or; c) multiple cycle implantation. However, the processes and conditions for reduction and elimination of precipitates and defects during high temperature annealing are not well understood. In this work we have studied the effect of annealing temperature on defect and precipitate reduction for SIMOX samples which were processed first with high temperature, high current implantation followed by high temperature annealing.

In this paper, an investigation into the crystal structure of Al-and N-implanted 4H-SiC is presented, encompassing a range of physical and electrical analysis techniques, with the aim of better understanding the material properties after high-dose implantation and activation annealing. Scanning spreading resistance microscopy showed that the use of high temperature implantation yields more uniform resistivity profiles in the implanted layer; this correlates with KOH defect decoration and TEM observations, which show that the crystal damage is much more severe in room temperature implanted samples, regardless of anneal temperature. Finally, stress determination by means of μRaman spectroscopy showed that the high temperature implantation results in lower tensile stress in the implanted layers with respect to the room temperature implantation samples.

ABSTRACTWe have carried out a study to understand the mechanisms involved in the formation of buried SIO2 by high dose implantation of oxygen into Si targets. Oxygen ions were implanted at 150 keV with doses up to 2.5 X 1018 ions/cm2 and a current density of less than 10 μA/cm2 into Si 〈100〉 at room and liquid nitrogen temperatures. In-situ Rutherford backscattering (RBS) analysis clearly indicates the formation of uniform buried SIO2 for both room and liquid nitrogen temperatures for doses above 1.5 X 1018/cm2.Oxygen ions were implanted at room temperature into crystalline quartz to doses of about 1018 ions cm2 at 150 keV, with a current density of 〈10〉10 μA/cm2. The RBS spectra of the oxygen implanted quartz cannot be distinguished from those of unimplanted ones. Furthermore, Si ions were implanted into crystalline quartz at 80 keV and dose of 1 X 1017 Si/cm2, and a current aensity of about 1 μA/cm2. However, no signal from Si in excess of the SiO2 ratio could be observed. Our results obtained by RBS show that implantation of either Si+ or O into SiO2 under conditions stated above does not create a layer whose Si:O ratio differs measurably from that of SiO2.
