AbstractPolycrystalline silicon thin films were grown on glass by two-steps, i.e., deposition of seeds on glass (1) and growth epitaxy-like on the seeds (2). For the growth of seeds, the surface reaction was intentionally enhanced by impingment of atomic hydrogen at rather high temperature (450 °C). Strongly textured polycrystalline Si exhibiting (220) preferential orientation was grown epitaxy-like on the seeds.

AbstractThe mechanisms of stress generation and stress relaxation of LPCVD silicon thin films were studied using high temperature wafer curvature measurements. The stresses generated during depositions are measured as functions of deposition temperature and microstructure. Amorphous silicon deposited with a compressive stress shows a large stress change toward tensile during crystallization. The stress relaxation of polysilicon films deposited with tensile stresses can be described by a deformation model from Ashby and Frost [1]. The polysilicon films deposited with compressive stresses have hydrogen incorporated during deposition and shows hydrogen evolution during thermal cycles.

ABSTRACTRecently it has been proposed that solid silicon at the melting temperature is amorphous. There is no known case of a solid for which an amorphous structure is the equilibrium state. Silicon thin films on insulating substrates, when heated radiantly, melt inhomogeneously and provide an accessible high temperature system for a study of a solid coexisting with its melt. Using the intensity, energy distribution and polarization of Raman scattering from silicon lamellae, we have proved that the equilibrium phase is in fact crystalline. Furthermore, we give strong evidence that the solid regions have {100} texture at Tm.

Aluminum-copper-silicon thin films have been considered as an interconnection metallurgy for integrated circuit applications. Various schemes have been proposed to incorporate small percent-ages of silicon into films that typically contain two to five percent copper. We undertook a study of the total effect of silicon on the aluminum copper film as revealed by transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, x-ray diffraction and ion microprobe techniques as a function of the various deposition methods.X-ray investigations noted a change in solid solution concentration as a function of Si content before and after heat-treatment. The amount of solid solution in the Al increased with heat-treatment for films with ≥2% silicon and decreased for films <2% silicon.
