ABSTRACTA manufacturable process must be designed with device integrity and reliability in mind. The optimum cumulative thermal budget should be chosen to achieve a shallow junction (for performance optimization) while minimizing junction leakage. At the same time the processing must satisfy reliability requirements such as good metal step coverage and oxide integrity. Interactions between thermal processes create problems such as repeated anneals, chemical reactions, pattern shifts, and non-equilibrium conditions, as well as opportunities for process simplification, such as greater flexibility in anneal and silicidation processes. In general RTP integration requires a redesign of the complete process sequence.

4H-SiC defects evolution after thermal processes has been evaluated. Different annealing temperatures have been used to decrease the defect density of epitaxial layer (as stacking faults) and recover the damage occurred after ion implantation. The propagation of defects has been detected by Photoluminescence tool and monitored during the thermal processes. The results show that implants do not affect the surface roughness and how a preliminary annealing process, before ion implantation step, can be useful in order to reduce the SFs density. It shown the effect of tuned thermal process. A kind of defect, generated by implant and subsequent annealing, can be removed by an appropriate thermal budget, while others can increase. A fine tuning of thermal process parameters, temperature and timing, is useful to recover the crystallographic quality of the epilayer and increase the yield of the power device.

ABSTRACTThe CuInS2 thin film formation from a Cu/In precursor stack in the presence of elemental sulfur using a rapid thermal process under Cu-poor conditions has been studied. The process has been aborted at appropriate stages and the corresponding samples were investigated by XRD, Raman spectroscopy and SEM. The sulfurisation starts from elemental Cu and CuIn2. Elemental In and the binary phases Cu11In9 and Cu7In3 appear as intermediate phases. At the end of the sulfurisation the sample contains the ternary phases CuInS2 and CuIn5S8. CuS and β-In2S3 are detected by Raman spectroscopy at the sample surface and at distinct stages of the sulfurisation only. A difference in CuInS2 crystal quality is observed between the surface and the bottom of the samples.

The article contains sub-results from analyses of processes in thermodiagnostics. In this paper we give examples of the response simulation model of thermal processes on the step pulse. It describes a method of applying diagnostics in machine production. The paper describes a method of prediction values of consistently transient events that can be described by a mathematical function. This article focuses on thermal process. This gives some reasonable time to take an appropriate control plot in the desired values of variables borders. The article contains results of the simulation and plot comparison of simulation results with the measured value.
