AbstractWe report on our work to develop a process for depositing nanoporous organosilicate (OSG) films via plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD). This approach entails codepositing an OSG material with a plasma polymerizable hydrocarbon, followed by thermal annealing of the material to remove the porogen, leaving an OSG matrix with nano-sized voids. The dielectric constant of the final film is controlled by varying the ratio of porogen precursor to OSG precursor in the delivery gas. Because of the need to maintain the mechanical strength of the final material, diethoxymethylsilane (DEMS) is utilized as the OSG precursor. Utilizing this route we are able to deposit films with a dielectric constant of 2.55 to 2.20 and hardness of 0.7 to 0.3 GPa, respectively.

AbstractConventional and Rapid Thermal Annealing of Semi-Insulating Polycrystalline Silicon layers obtained by Low Pressure Chemical Vapor Deposition (LPCVD) from disilane Si2H6 have been performed in order to determine the structural modifications induced on the layers by these thermal treatments. The study of these modifications has been carried out by several analysis methods like FTIR, XPS, TEM, RAMAN and ellipsometry. The results obtained are presented, contrasted and discussed in this work.
