Ultrahigh Vacuum Metalorganic Chemical Vapor Deposition and in Situ Characterization of Nanoscale Titanium Dioxide Films

Pages : 434
Book Description
Thin titanium dioxide films were produced by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition on sapphire(0001) in an ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) chamber. A method was developed for producing controlled submonolayer depositions from titanium isopropoxide precursor. Film thickness ranged from 0.1 to 2.7 nm. In situ X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) was used to determine film stoichiometry with increasing thickness. The effect of isothermal annealing on desorption was evaluated. Photoelectron peak shapes and positions from the initial monolayers were analyzed for evidence of interface reaction. Deposition from titanium isopropoxide is divided into two regimes: depositions below and above the pyrolysis temperature. This temperature was determined to be 300 deg C. Controlled submonolayers of titanium oxide were produced by cycles of dosing with titanium isopropoxide vapor below and annealing above 300 deg C. Precursor adsorption below the pyrolysis temperature was observed to saturate after 15 minutes of dosing. The quantity absorbed was shown to have an upper limit of one monolayer. The stoichiometry of thin films grown by the cycling method were determined to be TiO2. Titanium dioxide film stoichiometry was unaffected by isothermal annealing at 700 deg C. Annealing produced a decrease in film thickness. This was explained as due to desorption. Desorption ceased at approximately 2.5 to 3 monolayers, suggesting bonding of the initial monolayers of film to sapphire is stronger than to itself. Evidence of sapphire reduction at the interface by the depositions was not observed. The XPS O is peak shifted with increased film thickness. The shifts were consistent with oxygen in sapphire and titanium dioxide having different O is photoelectron peak positions. Simulations showed the total shifts for thin films ranging in thickness of 0.1 to 2.7 nm to be -0.99 to -1.23 eV. Thick films were produced for comparison.

Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) of Titanium Nitride
Author: Sameer Narsinha Dharmadhikari

ISBN:
Category : Chemical vapor deposition
Languages : en
Pages : 110
Book Description
Titanium tetrachioride and ammonia were used as precursors in a Jow pressure chemical vapor deposition process to deposit titanium nitride films on silicon wafers. The process was carried out at temperatures from 450 to 850°C and the activation energy for the reaction was determined. The order of the reaction, with respect to the partial pressures of the reactant gases, was determined by carrying out the reaction at varying partial pressures of the reactant gases. The following rate equation was established for the reaction: rate = 4.35*10-5exp( -5150/T)*(PNH3)1.37(PTicl4)-0.42 The titanium nitride thin films deposited were characterized for properties like resistivity, stress, hardness, and density. The effects of varying the process parameters (temperature, flow ratio, etc.) on these film properties were studied.

Low-Temperature Chemical Vapor Deposition of Ruthenium and Manganese Nitride Thin Films

Pages :
Book Description
Materials and thin film processing development has been and remains key to continuing to make ever smaller, or miniaturized, microelectronic devices. In order to continue miniaturization, conformal, low-temperature deposition of new electronic materials is needed. Two techniques capable of conformality have emerged: chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and atomic layer deposition (ALD). Here, two processes for deposition of materials which could be useful in microelectronics, but for which no low-temperature, conformal process has been established as commercializable, are presented. One is ruthenium, intended for use in interconnects and in dynamic random access memory electrodes, a known material for use in microelectronics but for which a more conformal, yet fast process than previously demonstrated is required. The other is manganese nitride, which could be used as active magnetic layers in devices or as a dopant in materials for spintronics, which is not yet established as a desired material in part due to the lack of any previously known CVD or ALD process for deposition.

Formation of Low Temperature Silicon Dioxide Films Using Chemical Vapor Deposition

Book Description
"Low Temperature Oxide (LTO) thin films were prepared using a Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition process. The process was characterized by applying traditional statistical studies and response surface technique. The uniformities within wafer and from wafer to wafer were examined by determining the mean and the standard deviation of films thicknesses. Response surface methodology was employed to determine the optimum process conditions. Time, temperature and gas flow ratio were used as the experimental factors. Index of refraction and deposition rate were used as the experimental responses. Additionally, etch rate, density, dielectric constant and infrared (IR) spectra were found for the silicon dioxide films prepared at the determined optimum condition. The IR spectra were obtained by employing Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR). The average deposition rate was found to be 46 A per minute and the average index of refraction was 1.44. The calculated density, activation energy, etch rate, dielectric constant and dielectric strength agreed with reported values. A double metal test run was performed using LTO oxide. The results indicated that the recommended baseline LTO process is suitable for multilayer metallization processes."--Abstract.
