AbstractMicrowave afterglow plasma oxidation at a low temperature (600 °C ) and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) were combined to grow high quality ultra-thin dielectrics. This new approach has a low thermal budget. The mid-gap interface state density of oxides pretreated in N2O plasma was decreased to about 5×1010 cm−2eV−1 after rapid thermal annealing at 950 °C.It was found that RTA is very effective for relieving the oxide stress and reducing the interface state density. Nitrogen incorporated in oxides by the N2O plasma pretreatment of the Si surface helped to reduce the interface state density. Microstructures of ultra-thin oxide grown by microwave afterglow oxidation with or without RTA were revealed by extended-X-ray-absorption-finestructure (EXAFS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis.

AbstractVariable frequency microwaves (VFM) and rapid thermal annealing (RTA) were used to activate ion implanted dopants and re-grow implant-damaged silicon. Four-point-probe measurements were used to determine the extent of dopant activation and revealed comparable resistivities for 30 seconds of RTA annealing at 900 °C and 6-9 minutes of VFM annealing at 540 °C. Ion channeling analysis spectra revealed that microwave heating removes the Si damage that results from arsenic ion implantation to an extent comparable to RTA. Cross-section transmission electron microscopy demonstrates that the silicon lattice regains nearly all of its crystallinity after microwave processing of arsenic implanted silicon. Secondary ion mass spectroscopy reveals limited diffusion of dopants in VFM processed samples when compared to rapid thermal annealing. Our results establish that VFM is an effective means of low-temperature dopant activation in ion-implanted Si.
